This data set has information on temperature of water at the bottom of inland water bodies; thickness of ice on inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs and rivers) and coastal waters; temperature of the uppermost surface of ice on inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs, rivers) and coastal waters; the mean temperature of total water column in inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs and rivers) and coastal waters; Amount of water in the vegetation canopy and/or in a thin layer on the soil. It represents the amount of rain intercepted by foliage, and water from dew; Volume of water in soil layer (0 - 289 cm) of the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System; The amount of evaporation from bare soil at the top of the land surface; surface runoff
This report presents the results a hydrologic investigation at White Sands National Monument (WHSA) in southern New Mexico. The principle objective of this study is to develop a conceptual model of the shallow groundwater system within the gypsum dune field with the intent to increase our understanding of how it interacts with the larger, regional hydrologic system. The monument, which encompasses approximately 115 square miles, includes a portion of the largest gypsum dune field in the world.
This data package contains locally verified monthly total pan evaporation data from a NOAA National Weather Service station located at the USDA Jornada Experimental Range headquarters in southern New Mexico, USA. The evaporation pan measurements commenced in 1953 and ended in 1979 when the instrument was decommissioned. Pan evaporation observations were made using standard U.S. climatological service instrumentation and procedures. The included data were verified and transcribed directly from records retrieved from NOAA in ~1995 and have since undergone quality control and assurance procedures different than those in place at NOAA. These data therefore differ from those directly downloadable from NOAA servers. There is no further data from this decommissioned instrument, so this dataset is now complete and data will no longer be updated here.All observations from this weather station have also undergone NOAA QA/QC procedures and those data are available by accessing the Jornada Experimental Range, NM US GHCN station through the National Climatic Data Center portal (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/datasets/GSOM/stations/GHCND:USC002944... - monthly pan evaporation data are available back to 1930, but there may be data issues prior to 1953).
Monthly US calculated soil moisture data total (mm), anomaly (mm), and percentile.
A range of data for the Orange-Senqu basin, including narrative and numerical data covering rainfall, evaporation, radiation, soil type, groundwater recharge, yield, groundwater quality, dam infrastructure, surface water flows, surface water quality, flood, irrigation, urban water supply. The database can be searched by category or keywork, and will produce particular studies, with coverage of particular regions or the whole basin. Where data is available, it will be linked within the study pages, and provided either in pdf, xls, or GIS-compatable formats.
An extensive, 33 year (1964-1996), climatic database has been developed for three climate stations on the Reynolds Creek Experimental Watershed (RCEW) located near the north end of the Owyhee Mountains in southwest Idaho. The longest records (1964-1996) are for daily maximum and minimum temperature. The length of record for other weather elements that include relative humidity, solar radiation, wind speed and direction, daily Class A pan evaporation and barometric pressure varies, but in general is from 1974-1996. Weather sensors have varied from hygrothermographs with spring-driven clocks and charts to electronic sensors with the data telemetered daily to the Northwest Watershed Research Center (NWRC) office in Boise, Idaho. Most of the data, since the early 1980's, were measured and stored electronically, therefore, hourly data are available for most climatic elements between the early 1980's and 1996. These data can be accessed from the USDA-ARS Northwest Watershed Research Center database.
The Southern Great Plains 1997 (SGP97) Hydrology Experiment originated from an interdisciplinary investigation, "Soil Moisture Mapping at Satellite Temporal and Spatial Scales" (PI: Thomas J. Jackson, USDA Agricultural Research Service, Beltsville, MD) selected under the NASA Research Announcement 95-MTPE-03. The National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) Evaporation Dataset is one of several surface datasets provided for the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Continental-Scale International Project (GCIP) Near Surface Observation Data Set (NESOB) 1997 project. This dataset was formed by extracting evaporation data from the GCIP/Enhanced Seasonal Observing Period 1997 (GCIP/ESOP-97) NCDC Summary of the Day Co-operative Dataset (TD-3200) for the NESOB 1997 area and time of interest. This NCDC Evaporation Dataset contains data from approximately 14 stations reporting evaporation data for the NESOB 1997 time period (01 April 1997 through 31 March 1998, and in the NESOB 1997 domain (approximately 94.5W to 100.5W longitude and 34N to 39N latitude). The NCDC Evaporation Dataset contains seven metadata parameters and sixteen data parameters and flags. The metadata parameters describe the date, network, station and location at which the data were collected. Data values are valid for the 24 hours preceding the time of observation, and all times are UTC. The evaporation and temperature parameters are not reported when the temperature is below freezing. The data parameters have two associated NCDC Quality Control (QC) Flags. The NCDC Evaporation Dataset hour of observation varies by station. Quality Control for this data was provided by NCDC. No additional QC was performed by University Corporation for Atmospheric Research/Joint Office for Science Support (UCAR/JOSS) on this dataset.
This is Reclamation’s new hydrologic database access portal. These new tools are designed to replace the Data Retrieval apps below, as they begin to reach the end of their functional lifespans. We encourage everyone to take a look at our new and improved access portal and begin plans to transition to this improved data delivery source.
Water stable isotope data (hydrogen and oxygen isotopes of H2O) from wetlands and streams within the Pipestem Creek watershed. This data was collected over two open water seasons (May-September): 2014 and 2015. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Brooks, J.R., D. Mushet, M. Vanderhoof, S. Leibowitz, J. Christensen, B. Neff, D. Rosenberry, W. Rugh, and L. Alexander. Estimating wetland connectivity to streams in the Prairie Pothole Region: an isotopic and remote sensing approach.
