We use the statistically downscaled MACAv2-METDATA temperature and precipitation data from 20 GCMs from the Climate Model Intercomparison Program Phase 5 (CMIP5) as input to the water balance model. The statistically downscaled dataset is: MACAv2-METDATA: Multivariate Adaptive Constructed Analogs (Abatzoglou &amp; Brown, 2012, bias corrected by METDATA, Abatzoglou, 2013) Users interested in the downscaled temperature and precipitation files are referred to the dataset home page: MACAv2-METDATA: http://maca.northwestknowledge.net The 20 included GCMs are: bcc-csm1-1-m, bcc-csm1-1, BNU-ESM, CanESM2, CCSM4, CNRM-CM5, CSIRO-Mk3-6-0, GFDL-ESM2G, GFDL-ESM2M, HadGEM2 CC365, HadGEM2-ES365, inmcm4, IPSL-CM5A-LR, IPSL CM5A-MR, IPSL-CM5B-LR, MIROC5, MIROC-ESM, MIROC ESM CHEM, MRI-CGCM3, NorESM1-M", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P972JAUC", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.6047d28ed34eb120311a672b.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_6047d28ed34eb120311a672b", "keyword": ["Greater Yellowstone Area", "MACAv2-METDATA", "USGS:6047d28ed34eb120311a672b", "Yellowstone", "climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere", "effects of climate change", "environment", "evaporation", "hydrologic processes", "runoff", "snow and ice cover", "soil moisture"], "modified": "2021-06-30T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-113.9807, 39.9795, -106.9808, 47.9794", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Data release for Greater Yellowstone Climate Assessment (vol 1), Chapter 7.
