Weather, snow, stream, topographic, and vegetation data are presented from the South Mountain Experimental Catchments from water years 2007-2013 (10-1-2007 to 9-30-2013). The data provide detailed information on the weather and hydrologic response for four highly instrumented catchments in the late stages of woodland encroachment. Hourly data from six meteorologic stations and four weirs have been carefully processed and quality checked, are serially complete, and ideal for hydrologic, ecosystem, and biogeochemical modeling. Topographic and vegetation data, as well as stream and drainage area delineations are Lidar-derived. This study site was established in 2007 as a collaborative, long-term research laboratory to address the impacts of western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook) encroachment and treatments in the interior Great Basin region of the western USA.

Intended use

Weather, snow, stream, elevation, and vegetation data presented are ideal for hydrologic, ecosystem, and biogeochemical modeling. Snow data additionally may be used to evaluate model results. In addition, the weather data can be used to characterize similar sites of interest.

Use limitations

Gap-filling of vector data errs on the conservative side. For example, if there is no reason to believe the data are wrong, even if they do not follow an intuitive pattern, we have left them unchanged. Users may further correct data as they see fit. Raw data is included for reprocessing if desired.
