Reply to comment by Keith E. Schilling on Climate and agricultural land use change impacts on streamflow in the upper Midwestern United States''

This reply addresses concerns raised by Schilling (2016, doi: 10.1002/2015WR018482) on Gupta et al. (2015a, doi: 10.1002/2015WR017323, 2015b, doi: 10.1002/2015WR017323). To this end, we provide additional analysis of the Raccoon River flows in Iowa and show that both annual streamflow and baseflow are mainly controlled by precipitation.
