River Analysis and Climate Change: Continuous Prediction of Clay-Bed Erosion in Watts Creek

Predicted future precipitation is downscaled and used to drive a hydrologic model to assess future erosion potential in a semi-alluvial clay-bed watercourse, Watts Creek. The 21 km2 watershed is predominantly urban, with overall impervious cover of 22%, and the remaining land use split between agric...
