Abstract

This dataset contains streamflow simulations for eight gauge stations in the high Andes of Argentina and Chile for a future 10-year period based on three end-member climate scenarios: (1) a 30% reduction in precipitation ("drier scenario", labeled "70P"), (2) a 30% reduction in precipitation and a 4°C increase in mean annual temperature ("drier and warmer scenario", labeled "70P_4C"), and (3) a 4°C increase in mean annual temperature ("4C"). Changes in precipitation and temperature are relative to a water year 2005-2015 baseline period. Each file contains 5000 simulations for the given gauge station and climate scenario. Argentina gauge stations are the Río Mendoza, Río Tunuyán, Río Diamante, and Río Atuel. Chilean gauge stations are the Río Choapa, Río Aconcagua, Río Colorado, and the Río Tinguiririca. All results are in mm/day and stored in .mat format. Additional details on gauge locations and methods used to generate each time series are available in Slosson, J.R., Kelleher, C., & Hoke, G.D. 2021. Contrasting Impacts of a Hotter and Drier Future on Streamflow and Catchment Scale Sediment Flux in the High Andes. In review.
