Hill Demonstration Forest and Umstead Research Farm precipitation data
dataset
posted on 2024-09-12, 20:08 authored by Johnny L. Boggs, Ge Sun, Steven G. McNultyThis data publication contains hourly precipitation readings collected from a tipping bucket on the Hill Demonstration Forest (HF) and Umstead Research Farm (UF) from 2007 to 2020. Both sites are located north of Durham, North Carolina. The HF is owned by North Carolina State University and UF is owned by North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
The precipitation data measured at these sites can help quantify the water budget or water balance in Piedmont watersheds and refine our understanding of the interactions between the hydrological cycle and atmospheric conditions. This data publication is used by USDA Forest Service scientists, staff and cooperators in support of research in hydrology, watershed management, silviculture, and forest ecology in the North Carolina Piedmont Region.
