Title
ISO 19131 AAFC Annual Unit Runoff in Canada - 2013 – Data Product Specification
Abstract

The “AAFC Annual Unit Runoff in Canada - 2013” report aims to illustrate runoff trends across the country by calculating annual unit runoff for a variety of probabilities of exceedence commonly used by decision makers. Annual unit runoff is a measure of runoff volume per square kilometre. This series uses units of cubic decametres (1000 m3) per square kilometre (dam3/km2), which is equivalent to millimetres depth on the landscape. It includes a point data set for the hydrologic stations that were analyzed and seven sets of linework to show the adjusted isolines for 10%, 25%, 50%, 70%, 75%, 80%, and 90% probability of exceedence. It is an update and expansion of the work completed in the 1994 report “Annual Unit Runoff on
the Canadian Prairies”.
