Supporting data for two MWBMglacier applications to the Copper River basin in Alaska These data can be used to replicate the application of MWBMglacier as described in two journal articles: 1) Enhancement of a parsimonious water balance model to simulate surface hydrology in a glacierized watershed (in review), and 2) Hydrologic regime changes in a high-latitude glacierized watershed under future climate conditions (doi:10.3390/w10020128). These simulations provide results from historical and 12 future general circulation model scenarios for the period 1949-2099 to determine the potential effects of climate change on the hydrology and water quality of a snow-dominated mountainous environment. In addition to the inputs and outputs, this Data Release includes summaries of the input and output data...

These attributes include: the map unit (GESS_MU), a geomorphic modifier (GESS_Modifier), a sediment stratification indicator (SedStrat), and a a sediment texture classification (Texture6). Possible GESS_MU values include: alluvial sediment, colluvial sediment, eolian sediment, lacustrine sediment, marine sediment, organic sediment, outwash, ice-contact deposits, island, residual soils, soliflucted sediment, till, bedrock, fill, and...

The polygon feature class divides the glaciated United States into seventeen distinct terranes using a geologically based approach. Each terrane contains Quaternary sediment that is derived from a common depositional history and can be characterized by texture and thickness. Delineation of hydrogeologic terranes was based on an interpretation of existing geologic mapping of surficial and Quaternary deposits, and thickness of unconsolidated material. Overall thickness of Quaternary sediment was used to qualitatively rank the generalized complexity of geologic framework in each terrane: "lower" complexity (assigned a terrane code...
