Three land-use scenarios (current: 2014 LU-Ls8, future: 2025 LU-Pm, and future: 2025 LU-Pop) were generated and analyzed for hydrologic modelling. The Global Climate Model: MRI-AGC M3.2S5containing 1979-2003 and 2075-2099 daily precipitation data was used to model the outflow in the subwatershedunder the three different land-use scenarios. Outflow...
