This digital dataset contains the climate data used for the Salinas Valley Hydrologic System, including the Salinas Valley Watershed Model (SVWM) and the Lower Salinas Valley Hydrologic Models (Salinas Valley Integrated Hydrologic Model (SVIHM) and Salinas Valley Operational Model (SVOM)). The climate data include spatially distributed daily precipitation, maximum and minimum air temperature, and potential evapotranspiration for the period from 10/1/1947 to 9/30/2023. This data set includes the following files: raster of the extent used in the Salinas Valley Hydrologic System; shapefiles of the input climate stations and daily gridded climate data for daily precipitation (PPT), maximum and minimum air temperature (TMN and TMX respectively), and potential evapotranspiration (PET).

This digital dataset contains the climate data used for the Lower Salinas Valley Hydrologic Models (Salinas Valley Integrated Hydrologic Model (SVIHM) and Salinas Valley Operational Model (SVOM)). The monthly climate data for the Lower Salinas Valley Hydrologic Models are based on the regional climate data for the Salinas Valley Hydrologic System (Hevesi and others, 2022). To develop the monthly climate grids, the regional climate data were resampled to a monthly timescale and area weighted to the model grid. The climate data include spatially distributed monthly precipitation and potential evapotranspiration for the model grid for October 1947 to September 2022.

This digital dataset contains the gridded future climate data used for the Lower Salinas Valley Hydrologic Models. The monthly climate data for Lower Salinas Valley Hydrologic Models are based on the Salinas and Carmel River Basins Study (SCRBS) future climate scenarios [Henson and others, 2024). SCRBS considers one baseline climate scenario that represents recent historical climate conditions and five future climate scenarios: Hot-Wet (HW), Warm-Wet (WW), Hot-Dry (HD), Warm-Dry (WD), and Central Tendency (CT) [Henson and others, 2024]. To develop the monthly climate grids, the regional climate data was resampled to a monthly timescale and area weighted to the model grid. The climate data includes spatially distributed monthly precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (expressed in millimeters, mm) for the model grid for January 2016 to January 2100.

This digital dataset contains the surface water data used for both the Salinas Valley Watershed Model (SVWM) and the Lower Salinas Valley Hydrologic Models (Salinas Valley Integrated Hydrologic Model (SVIHM) and Salinas Valley Operational Model (SVOM)). The surface water dataset includes two regions of the Salinas River Watershed; the upper region is primarily within San Luis Obispo County, California and lower region of the Salinas River Watershed is contained within Monterey County, California. Subcatchments within the Salinas River watershed were delineated using the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 10m digital elevation model (DEM), USGS National Hydrography Dataset Best Resolution (NHD) watershed boundaries, and the NHD stream data (U.S. Geological Survey, 2019). For each defined subcatchment, a pourpoint was defined that connects the watershed outflow to the tributary streams or ephemeral stream channels defined for the Salinas River in the lower and upper Salinas Valley Watershed. For the stream network of the lower Salinas River Watershed, NHD defined streams were used to initially define the network. The lower Salinas River Watershed stream network was refined to account for diversion canals and undefined ephemeral channels that drain into the Lower Salinas Valley in cooperation with Monterey County. For the lower Salinas Valley, the stream network and subcatchment data were defined simultaneously. For the upper Salinas Valley the pourpoints were defined based upon where previously defined subcatchments intersected with the stream network defined by the Paso Robles Basin Model (Fugro West, Inc and Cleath Associates, 2002; Fugro West, Inc, ETIC Engineering, Inc, and Cleath and Associates, 2005). The stream network spatial data were not provided from San Luis Obispo County as a vector shape, and the USGS did not develop the Paso Robles Basin Model (PRBM), therefore a shapefile of locations where the PRBM grid contained a stream reach was used as a proxy for linear features of the stream network in the upper Salinas River Watershed. This data set includes the following files: - Shapefiles for stream network, both lower and upper watersheds - Streamflow gage data and location - Ungaged tributary inflow points, both lower and upper watersheds
