TC Chamberlin Modeling Center: streamflow simulations

Detailed Description

Simulated streamflows and groundwater seepage from an integrated groundwater/surface-water model in southcentral Wisconsin. The model takes inputs of daily precipitation and temperature, and simulates all components of the water cycle including evapotranspiration, groundwater flow, groundwater/surface water interactions, and streamflows. Pulses of streamflow and then recession can be seen following the storm events in mid-June 2001, indicated by the daily precipitation totals. A delayed response in groundwater seepage can be seen in the wetlands east of the watershed boundary. (USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2016-5091)
