Model Basics
Develop a schematic diagram of the watershed systemDescribes physical structure (tributaries, inflows,
and reservoirsIdentifies and locates watershed services Show diversion points and instream uses
Derive estimates for the model’s objective functionDevelop demand and supply curves for each
service based on water diversion or instream flowDescribe model constraints
Mass balance (upstream to downstream flow)Intertemporal storage in reservoirsInstitutional flow restrictions

Urban water demands are most directly affected by population changes
Income increases are assumed to have little direct effect on water demand because increased demand for water services is offset by increased water-use efficiency

Streamflow Changes Streamflows were produced using WATBAL hydrologic model
Conceptual rainfall-runoff model that works with the changes of temperature and precipitation and easy to use model to assess climate change impacts on river basins (Yates, 1996).

Conclusions
Agriculture can lose big share of its water consumption losing almost a third under 2080 GFDL0 (driest scenario).
At the same time the economic impacts of climate change on the whole economy can sum up to $175 million (12.6% of the total net benefits).
Recreational sector loses 67% (highest percentage-wise) and agricultural sector loses $160 million (highest dollar-wise) under 2080 GFDL0.
In 2030’s small grain hay and corn silage are loser crops losing more than 60% and 50% of their production under 2030 GFDL0, while pecans are the winners.
In 2080’s potato joins the group of loser crops losing 50% of their total production while crops like pecans, green chile and onions are the winner crops losing less than 15% of their production.
