Abstract

CIimate Impacts Group scientists developed estimates of future flooding on the Green, Snoqualmie, and South Fork Skykomish rivers. The aim of this study is to provide King County decision makers with relevant, specific data that will allow them to account for climate change in their flood risk management practices. For the Green River, we also accounted for the effect of reservoir operations by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) at Howard Hanson Dam.
