MODFLOW 2005 data sets for the simulation of potential increased inundation in flood-prone regions of Southeast Florida in response to climate and sea-level changes in Broward County, Florida, 2060-69

Two transient surface-water/groundwater models were developed to study the potential for increased inundation and flooding in eastern Broward County due to changes in future climate and sea-level rise. These models were constructed by using a modified version of MODFLOW 2005, with the surface-water system represented by using the surface-water routing process (SWR1) and a new Urban Runoff (URO) process. The models were used to simulate an historical period (1990-99) using measured input data and a base-case (1990–99) and a future period (2060–69) using regional climate model rainfall and potential evapotranspiration output. Model construction relied heavily on a previously created variable density model of the same study area. This USGS data release contains all of the input and output files as well as the executables required to reproduce the simulations described in the associated model documentation report.
