Abstract
Most of the data are available free for analysis in the Fraser Basin. The analysis procedure is applied on different data types, including point (e.g., streamflow records), vector (e.g., river network), and raster images (e.g., DEM) as inputs for the setup of the MESH model in the Fraser Basin. Different processing steps can be applied over input datasets, such as clipping, merging, filtering, mosaicking.
The input data are as follows:
1) Basin, subbasin, subsubbasin boundary shapefiles
2) River networks
3) Streamflow records
4) Digital Elevation Model (DEM)
5) Land Cover Classes
6) Meteorological forcing
7) Soil Dataset
Purpose
One of the priority tasks in the Current Generation Hydrologic Modelling (CGHM) theme of the GWF Core Modelling and Forecasting Team is producing climate change runs for major basins across Canada. Part of this work plan is to set-up and run the climate change production runs for the Fraser River.
