Streamflow measurements from four sites on the Tuolumne River in Yosemite National Park from Water Years 2002 to 2021
Abstract
Regions with remote and complex terrain experience spatially varying streamflow patterns, but are often poorly sampled due to difficult access. This data package includes streamflow measurements collected using low-visibility and low-impact installations at four sites on the Tuolumne River in Yosemite National Park, for water years 2002 to 2021. The resulting data set offers a unique opportunity to explore hydrologic processes in complex terrain.This data package contains half-hourly recordings of unvented pressure, vented pressure, and water temperature are measured and used to estimate discharge and stage height. Discharge flags provide insight into data anomalies. This dataset is formatted in accordance with ESS-Dive's Hydrologic Monitoring and File Level Metadata Formats. It contains the following files:1) Folder containing four csv files of time series streamflow measurements (unvented pressure, vented pressure, estimated discharge, water temperature, stage height, and discharge flag) from four locations on the Tuolumne River2) Data dictionary (dd.csv) containing units, definitions, human readable column names, and data type for all column headers throughout the dataset3) File-level metadata (FLMD.csv) containing metadata for files contained in the dataset4) Installation methods (InstallationMethods.csv) containing metadata on sensor installation
