Short summary
Input data (and model parameters) are significant sources of uncertainty that should be quantified. In southern Africa, water use data are among the most unreliable sources of model input data because available databases generally consist of only licensed information and actual use is generally unknown. The study assesses how uncertainty impacts the estimation of surface water resources of the Mogalakwena and Shashe sub-basins when using the databases that are currently available.
