Title

Future projections of the hydrology of the Philippines dataset

Abstract

The dataset ‘Future projections of the hydrology of the Philippines’ provides climate change scenarios from 1980-2089 using UKCP18 scenarios RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5 run through the Philippine National Hydrological model. Each relative concentration pathway (RCP) scenario contains 15 ensemble members, and we present a total of 30 model runs from 1980-2089. The model simulates evapotranspiration, runoff, infiltration, soil moisture, river baseflow and groundwater levels. Aggregated variables at a monthly time interval are provided in this dataset in NetCDF format for each RCP and scenario or aggregated to provincial level in csv format. The provincial levels are based on the first level subdivisions from GADM (https://gadm.org/maps/PHL_1.html).

Quality and validity

Lineage

The model has been developed using a version of the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model, into which a gridded groundwater model has been added so that it simulates the integrated surface water and groundwater system. The model is run on a 1/60° (~2 km) grid across the Philippines and is parameterised with spatially distributed parameters that describe the land surface, soil, vegetation, and aquifer properties. To assess potential future change in the water resources of the Philippines, the Philippine National Hydrological Model was driven by two 15-member ensembles of the UKCP18 climate projections considering two relative concentration pathways RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5. The dataset is available for 1980 – 2089 at a 2 km spatial resolution for the variables of precipitation, evapotranspiration, surface runoff, groundwater recharge, soil moisture, river baseflow and groundwater levels.
