5. Modelling Climate Change Impacts on Hydrological Response
193. Model Outputs: The outputs provided by the model are very extensive, covering all the
components of water balance spatially and temporally. The sub components of the water balance that
are most significant and used for analyses, include:
o Precipitation
o Total flow (Water yield) consisting of surface runoff, lateral and base flow
o Actual evapotranspiration (Actual ET)
194. Mean annual and seasonal precipitation is shown in Figure 55, and the coefficients of variation
in Figure 56. Most precipitation occurs during the southwest monsoon and coefficients of variation
during this period are significantly lower than during the northeast monsoon.
