Abstract

Click on Parent Folder to access all data and metadata that are currently available. Metadata include site properties, instrumentation, and processing notes.

You may also click on individual dataset links to immediately download a file of the data.

NOTE: We are working to update individual Water Year (WY) data listings on this site. Current individual files listed below may not represent all available data and metadata. Click on the Parent Folder link to access all files.

Snow depth, soil moisture and soil temperature are measured at the lower Providence meteorological site, from a location with a south facing aspect, using a Campbell Scientific logger to control peripheral devices. Snow depth is measured at 5 nodes in the open, at the drip edge and under canopies of an incense-cedar and white fir tree. Soil moisture and temperature are measured at 10, 30, 60, and 90 cm depths coincident with the snow depth nodes. A 10 watt solar panel provides power for monitoring at 10 minute intervals. Data processing compresses to hourly values.

The lower Providence meteorological site (approximately 1750 m) is located within the larger Providence headwater catchment.

Additional metadata are available in the https://eng.ucmerced.edu/snsjho/files/MHWG/Field/Southern_Sierra_CZO_KREW/Providence_Creek_Lower_Met/Water_Balance_Instrument_Cluster/South_Cluster/Level_2 parent directory of this dataset, such as site properties, instrumentation, and processing notes.
