The International Joint Commission (IJC) has awarded several
projects to CIROH researchers. These projects aim to generate
input data for hydrological models that are relevant to the local
conditions and develop the tools representing dominant
hydrological processes required to support water resources
analysis in the Souris River Basin (SRB).

<h3>
Climate Downscaling for Adaptation Planning in the Souris River Basin
</h3>
<p>
In 2022, the IJC highlighted the need for collaborative efforts in
developing bias-corrected and downscaled (i.e., relevant to the local
conditions) climate projections across borders. This project aims to
improve downscaled climate scenarios for the SRB.
</p>
<h4>Objectives</h4>
<p>
This project aims to provide valuable data for water resources
management and adaptation planning in the SRB by generating reliable
and robust downscaled-climate change projections spanning the years
2015-2100.
</p>
<h4>Research Activities</h4>
<ol>
<li>
Develop bias-corrected downscaled and disaggregated CMIP6 General
Circulation Models (GCMs) climate variables:
<ul>
<li>
Focus on the SRB domain, with potential to extend to the North
American domain and other transboundary river basins.
</li>
<li>
Focus on variables like precipitation, temperature, specific
humidity, wind speed, outgoing longwave radiation, incoming
shortwave radiation, and barometric pressure.
</li>
<li>
Generate sub-daily data from 2015-2100 with a 3-hour timestep
based on 12 selected GCMs and three Shared Socioeconomic
Pathways (SSPs), i.e., SSP245, SSP370, SSP585.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Assessment and Improvement:
<ul>
<li>
Identify dataset limitations and enhancement opportunities.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>

<h3>
Preparing the Inputs and Tools Required to Support the Climate Change Modeling Chain for Application to Water Resources Analysis in the Souris River Basin
</h3>
<p>
This project aims to develop bias-corrected downscaled sub-daily climate datasets over the Souris River Basin covering the years 1850-2014 to address limitations in existing techniques and the lack of binational atmospheric inputs for complex hydrological models.
</p>
<h4>Objectives</h4>
<p>
Project 2 is undertaken to provide reliable and robust downscaled climate scenarios for a historical period (i.e., 1850-2014) for adaptation planning in the SRB. This project will provide essential data for informed decision-making and climate resilience planning in the SRB.
</p>
<h4>Research Activities</h4>
<ol>
<li>
<strong>Dataset Development:</strong> Produce reliable downscaled historical climate datasets for the SRB using advanced prevailing techniques.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Evaluation:</strong> Evaluate downscaled and bias-corrected datasets by comparing different downscaled datasets to determine their reliability.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Atmospheric Inputs:</strong> Generate comprehensive disaggregated sub-daily atmospheric input data (same climate variables as Project 1) for hydrological models.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Adaptation Planning:</strong> Develop a framework for large-scale climate adaptation strategies.
</li>
</ol>
