Input data for the Community Water Model (CWatM) - a regional dataset covering Israel and the Ayalon Basin.

Abstract
This dataset was developed as part of the IIASA WINTER project, aiming to run high resolution hydrologicalsimulations in the river basins in Israel (Water Futures and Solutions for Israel (WFaS-Israel) | IIASA).Constructing a hyper-resolution (30 arcseconds) simulation can rely on a mix of upscaled coarse global, hyper-resolution global, and local datasets. Specifically, Hanasaki et al. (2022) stress the importance of local watermanagement and use data for hyper-resolution hydrologic simulations.The dataset covers the terrestrial area of Israel and the Palestinian Authority. It also includes the cross-borderand upstream river basin in the neighboring countries Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon. Theselected river basins of Ayalon and Sorek are in the central coastal area of Israel and vary by topography, landcover, and water management. The Ayalon stream drains the western downslopes of the Judea and Samariamountains and outlets into the Yarkon stream (to the North), which later reaches the Mediterranean Sea. TheSorek stream drains the hills around South-West Jerusalem and flows Westwards until reaching theMediterranean Sea.
