Water yield variability index, selected drainage regions, 1971 to 2013

Water yield variability index, selected drainage regions, 1971 to 2013 is an open dataset from Statistics Canada with 13 files (HTML, ESRI REST, PDF, WMS, FGDB/GDB); catalogue record updated 2022-03-22. On CanQuery you can follow the original downloads. Files are available in English and French.

This product provides the variability index for selected drainage regions in Canada. Variability is measured using a coefficient of variation (CV) to compare all months over a 42-year time period and is a measure of the dispersion or variation in the monthly yield values from 1971 to 2013 (and 1971 to 2012 for drainage region 1). It is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean or the standard deviation divided by the mean, with higher CVs indicating more variability in monthly water yields. The monthly variability was not calculated for drainage regions 5, 7, 8, 16, 17, 18, or the Labrador portion of 25.
