Hence, this study evaluates the ability of a standard
hydrologic model set - up: Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) hydrologic model for two headwater sub-basins in the Fraser River (Salmon and Willow), British Columbia, Canada, with climate inputs derived from observations and statistically downscaled global climate models (GCMs); to simulate six general water resource indicators (WRIs) and 32 ecologically relevant indicators of hydrologic alterations (IHA).
The Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC)
hydrologic model set - up for the Fraser River basin, British Columbia, Canada was used as a test - bed for the two systems.

The Washington assessment is the first to combine such a diverse and detailed
set of climate
models, fine spatial resolution, and
hydrologic modeling into an integrated climate impacts assessment.
Many impacts
settings are somewhat tuned to a certain resolution, such as the nested size categorizations of
hydrologic basins down to watershed size, commonly used in
hydrologic modeling.
There are many variables in
hydrologic and climatic
models which can only be estimated through calibration against a valid, and long period, data
set.
