Cumulative precipitation totals, precipitation days, heavy-precipitation days for the 50 gauges over the ten years; 6. Impervious percentages for wedges that extend from the 50 gauges; 7. Mean percent imperviousness -- weighted by precipitation totals -- upwind from the 50 gauges; 8. Mean percent imperviousness -- weighted by precipitation days -- upwind from the 50 gauges; 9. Mean percent imperviousness -- weighted by heavy-precipitation days -- upwind from the 50 gauges; 10. Control and downwind gauges for the 84 scenarios for each of the precipitation variables (i.e.., precipitation totals, precipitation days, and heavy-precipitation days; and 11. Geospatial data for the precipitation gauges.
