    • Input Files for Hydrologic Simulations for the Conterminous United States for Future Conditions Using the National Hydrologic Model Infrastructure (NHM) and the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5

    Metadata Updated: January 21, 2026

    The continental United States (CONUS) was modeled to produce simulations of historical and potential future streamflow using the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) application of the USGS National Hydrologic Model infrastructure (NHM; Regan and others, 2018). This child page specifically contains forcings (daily minimum air temperature, daily maximum air temperature, and daily precipitation accumulation) from each of the global circulation models (GCMs) presented in table1_GCMs_used.csv, using the Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 for simulating potential future streamflow for the period 2006 - 2100.
