Description and naming convention of outputs generated by the L2SWBM.

Output	Type	Description	Naming Convention	Filename example
Prior distribution plots (output_plot_prior.zip)	Folder	Multiple PDF files that contain plots of the prior probability distributions of the water balance components	<VAR>PriorCompare_<PriorPeriod>.pdf	evapPriorCompare_19501984.pdf
Data-preview plots (output_plot_preview.zip)	Folder	Multiple PDF files that contain plots of inputs over the analysis period. Each pdf file shows independent data sources for a specific lake over one decade (from decade no. 0 to decade no. n-1, with n = no. of years/10).	<LAKE>TS_Preview_<DECADE No.>_<PROJECTNAME>.pdf	superiorTS_Preview_d0_GLWBData.pdf
Posterior inference plots (output_plot_posterior.zip)	Folder	Multiple PDF files that contain plots of outputs over the analysis period. Each pdf file shows all data for a specific lake over one decade (from decade no. 0 to decade no. n-1, with n = no. of years/10).	<LAKE>TS_ALL_<DECADE No.>_<PROJECTNAME>.pdf	miHuronTS_ALL_d5_GLWBData.pdf
Posterior inference time-series (output_ts_posterior.zip)	Folder	Multiple CSV files that contain monthly inference (2.5, 50 and 97.5 percentile of the MCMC iterations) of each water balance component across each lake over the analysis period.	<LAKE><VAR>_<PROJECTNAME>.csv	erieRunoff_GLWBData.csv

“Naming Convention” field represents the naming convention of individual files within a specific folder (compressed into a zip archive).
