Impact/Purpose:
This work provides environmental protection managers and practitioners with an ability to integrate the Automated Geospatial Watershed Assessment (AGWA) hydrologic modeling and watershed assessment tool with the Integrated Climate and Land-Use Scenarios (ICLUS) database. Future growth is represented by housing density maps generated in decadal intervals from 2010 to 2100 using ICLUS future housing density maps adapted from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) social, economic, and demographic storylines to the conterminous United States.
