--------------------------------------------

dams_large.csv  lists the names, coordinates, provinces, historical yearly inflows, historical water consumption rate and historical yearly electricity generation of the reservoir stations.

reservoir_effective_capacity.pickle  contains the effective capacity for the reservoirs.

daily_hydro_inflow_per_dam_1979_2016_m3.pickle  and daily_hydro_inflow_per_dam_1979_2016_GWh.pickle  contains the daily hydro inflow time series in terms of water (m3) and potential energy (GWh), respectively.
