Abstract

This dataset contains time-lapse imagery and distributed measurements of air temperature, relative humidity, dew point, and soil temperature across Yosemite National Park from October 2023 to September 2024. Instruments were deployed at 10 sites in two cross-valley transects as part of the DOE Grant: Seasonal Cycles Unravel Mysteries of Missing Mountain Water organized by Jessica Lundquist (University of Washington), Rosemary Carroll (Desert Research Institute), and Ethan Gutmann (National Center for Atmospheric Research). The data are intended to support hydrologic modeling efforts to better resolve the fate of mountain water, and are published to support studies of surface climate or hydrologic processes in complex terrain. Measurements were collected with low-cost data loggers installed 2 m high on evergreen trees or buried just below the soil surface. A time-lapse camera at one site captures valley-scale seasonal snow cover variability.Dataset files are organized by site and variable (air measurements, ground measurements, or time-lapse video). Air and ground measurements are packaged in LoggerData.zip, and time-lapse imagery is compiled into a short video stored in TimelapseVideos.zip. File-level metadata contains details for each file included in the dataset. A data dictionary provides units and descriptions for column or row names in all files. The locations metadatamore »« less

Streamflow measurements from four sites on the Tuolumne River in Yosemite National Park from Water Years 2002 to 2021

Dataset Lundquist, Jessica ; Hallnan, Rachel ; Roche, James ; ...

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 accordancemore »« less
