Output Data from Hydrologic Simulations of the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River Basin in the southeastern U.S. using the Precipitation Runoff Modeling System

The Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River Basin (ACFB) was modeled to produce fourteen simulations of streamflow for demonstration of enhancements to the Precipitation Runoff Modeling System (PRMS); seven simulations without water use effects and seven simulations with water use effects. The seven simulations without water use were for 1) the whole ACFB basin (1982-2012), 2) the Chestatee River sub-basin (1982-2012), 3) the Chipola River sub-basin (1982-2012), 4) the Ichawaynochaway Creek sub-basin (1982-2012), 5) the Potato Creek sub-basin (1942-2012), 6) the Spring Creek sub-basin (1952-2012), and 7) the upper Chattahoochee River sub-basin (1982-2012). The seven simulations with water use effects were for the period 2008-2012. These data document the PRMS output data files from each of these simulations. Output files for the simulations include: 1) statvar files of streamflow for each stream segment, 2) annual streamflow statistic files, 3) nhru-summary files of the major water availability fluxes and storages of the coarse-resolution model (includes precipitation, recharge, actual evapotranspiration, runoff, and storage for the hydrologic response units (HRUs), and 4) a file of PRMS-simulated recharge mapped to MODFLOW groundwater cells using the PRMS map_results module for use as input to simulations developed by Jones and others (2017).
