Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources in Tanzania

WaterUnited Republic of TanzaniaUnited States Agency for International Development (USAID)

Dataset Objective

To assess and simulate the impact of climate change in Tanzania.

Context

SWAT hydrological model was used to simulate the historical (1981-2000) as well as future (1941-2060) hydrological conditions.

What is included

This dataset comprises of: water yield, soil moisture, total runoff, watershed sub basin, soil and water assessment tool (swat) model used to predict historical and future hydrological conditions.The models used entail CanESM2, CCSM4, CSIROMK3.6, IPSL-CM5A-LR, MPI-ESM-LR, and MRI-CGCM3 used to construct future climate scenario.

Collection Methods

Aggregated from different data sources.CanESM2, CCSM4, CSIROMK3.6, IPSL-CM5A-LR, MPI-ESM-LR, and MRI-CGCM3 were used to construct future climate scenario.
