The dataset is comprised of inputs to and outputs from the Cold Regions Hydrological Model (CRHM) when it was run as a virtual model of six prairie basin classes, as defined by He et al. (2023). These watersheds represented typified prairie watersheds based on physiogeography and coherent response to environmental change. Model parameters were informed by the results of He et al. (2023). The .prj files necessary to run the virtual models are included in the dataset. Climate forcing data are from the Adjusted and Homogenized Canadian Climate Dataset from ten stations over the Prairies and cover a period from 1960-2006. There are a series of wetland drainage and restoration scenarios that progressively reduced and increased the wetland depression area. Model output includes hourly catchment outflow, snow sublimation, soil moisture, and depression water storage in the HRUs for the baseline and each wetland management scenario.
Note: Up to 1000 features for each file are displayed
