Table 4. Periods of simulation and model input time series for each type of model simulation.

Type of model simulation Period of simulation Model input time series Remarks
CALIBRATION Oct. 1948 - Sept. 1989 Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station Oct. 1948 - Sept. 1949 omitted from analysis
Synthetic daily minimum and maximum air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station
TESTING 1 Oct. 1989 - Sept. 1996 Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station Differs from CALIBRATION in that measured, real-time air temperatures are used instead of synthetic air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station
Daily minimum and maximum air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station
TESTING 2 Oct. 1989 - Sept. 1996 Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station Differs from TESTING 1 in that measured, real-time precipitation data for Salmon Meadows SNOTEL station are added
Daily minimum and maximum air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station
Daily precipitation for Salmon Meadows SNOTEL station
TESTING 3 Oct. 1989 - Sept. 1996 Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station and Omak OMAW AgriMet station Differs from TESTING 1 in that measured, real-time precipitation data for Omak OMAW AgriMet station are added
TESTING 4 Oct. 1989 - Sept. 1996 Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station and Omak OMAW AgriMet station Differs from TESTING 1 in that measured, real-time precipitation data for Salmon Meadows SNOTEL and Omak OMAW AgriMet stations are added
Daily precipitation for Salmon Meadows SNOTEL station
COMPOSITE Oct. 1948 - Sept. 2004

Oct. 1948 - Sept. 1989:

Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station

Identical to CALIBRATION Oct. 1948 - Sept. 1989; identical to TESTING 1 Oct. 1989 - Sept. 1996; model input identical to TESTING 1 Oct. 1996 - Sept. 1999; model input differs from TESTING 1 Oct. 1999 - Sept. 2004 in that daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures are used for Conconully CCR Hydromet station instead of Conconully climate station
Synthetic daily minimum and maximum air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station

Oct. 1989 - Sept. 1999:

Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully climate station

Daily minimum and maximum air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station

Oct. 1999 - Sept. 2004:

Daily precipitation and minimum and maximum air temperatures for Conconully CCR Hydromet station

Daily minimum and maximum air temperatures for Omak OMAW AgriMet station
