The National Science Foundation's Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) program and many U.S. Forest Service Experimental Research Stations collect and maintain extensive, long-term ecological databases including streamflow and meteorological measurements. These databases have been widely used in intersite comparisons, modeling studies, and land management-related studies. Intersite research was facilitated by a centralized database called Climate and Hydrology Database Projects (CLIMDB/HYDRODB), initiated in 1998. The database was actively maintained until approximately 2015, and received contributions from 45 contributing LTER and USFS sites. In 2018, it was decided that a more modern system aligned with a broader community would be more appropriate for this type of data. The system maintained by the Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science (CUAHSI) was chosen.
This data package contains data contributed by the site Kings River Experimental Watershed (KEW) to ClimDBHydroDB, which has been reformatted to the Observations Data Model (ODM) 1.1 model for contribution to the CUAHSI system. This package contains the six data tables required for upload to CUAHSI. Data are available for 12 station(s): (1) Providence Creek 301 (2003,2010), (2) Providence Creek 303 (2003,2010), (3) Providence Creek 304 (2003,2010), (4) Duff Creek 102 (2003,2010), (5) Bull Creek B201 (2003,2010), (6) Bull Creek B203 (2003,2010), (7) Teakettle Creek 003 (2003,2010), (8) Upper Providence Met Station (2003,2011), (9) Lower Providence Met Station (2003,2011), (10) Upper Bull Met Station (2004,2011), (11) Lower Bull Met Station (2004,2011), (12) Bull Creek 204 (2003,2010).
