The overall goals are to…
Evaluate hydrologic importance of accurately representing the
spatiotemporal characteristics of precipitation fields using Tampa Bay
Water’s Integrated Hydrologic Model (IHM)
Evaluate the ability of bias‐corrected and spatially‐disaggregated GCM
retrospective simulations (CMIP3 and NARCAAP) to reproduce observed
hydrologic behavior using IHM
Evaluate changes in hydrologic behavior that result from driving the IHM
with bias‐corrected and spatially disaggregated GCM future predictions
