Impact of model structure on the accuracy of hydrological modeling of a Canadian Prairie watershed

Study region Prairie Pothole Region of Canada. Study focus The Prairie region spans across approximately 870,000 km2 of the Great Plains region of Canada (80%) and the United States (20%). The presence of a large number of depressional wetlands (potholes) results in dynamic surface-water and stream connectivity during wet and dry year necessitating an improved understanding of watershed-scale interactions of the Prairie Potholes. The Soil Water …
