Appendix E E-43Subwatershed 19 Case Study Figure 6-6:HSP-F mean annual streamflow with SDSM climate change scenarios.The mean monthly streamflow projections for the SDSM scenarios are consistent with the associated GCM scenarios,with the exception of the winter period, as shown in Figure 6-7. During the winter period the SDSM climates result inlower monthly flows and higher spring melt flows than the change field climates and the current climate. This trend iscounter to that observed with the Percentile Method climates for this period as well. During the remainder of the yearthe results are not definitive with only small differences observed.
