Streamflow and hydro-meteorological variables for 937 GRDC catchments in Europe (1969-2011) Authors: Manuela Brunner Last update: 17.08.2021 This dataset provides streamflow and hydro-meteorological time series (temperature, evapotranspiration, precipitation, snow-water-equivalent (SWE), and snowmelt) for 937 catchments in Central and Northern Europe for the period 1969-2011. Streamflow data were downloaded from the Global Runoff Data Centre: https://www.bafg.de/GRDC/EN/Home/homepage_node.html Catchment boundaries were derived from the global streamflow indices and metadata archive (GSIM): https://essd.copernicus.org/articles/10/765/2018/ Average areal hydro-meteorological variables for each catchment were derived from the gridded ERA5-Land data set: https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/reanalysis-era5-land?tab=overview Dataset components: (1) Shapefile of the 937 catchments File name: GRDC_selection_937_Europe.shp. The attribute 'grdb_no' is used to label the time series files provided in (2) and (3). (2) Daily streamflow time series from 1969-2011 for each of the 937 catchments variable names:_Q_Day.Cmd (3) Daily time series of the hydro-meteorological variables temperature, evapotranspiration, precipitation, SWE, and snowmelt for period 1981-2011 One file is provided for each variable. First column corresponds to date, remaining columns represent time series for each catchment. Columns are labeled using the 'grdb_no' ID provided in the shapefile. File names: ERA5_Europe_GRDC_ . variable_name: evap for evapotranspiration, precip for precipitation, smelt for snowmelt, soil for soil moisture, swe for snow-water-equivalent, temp for temperature Related publications: Brunner and Gilleland (2021): Complex high- and low-flow networks differ in their spatial correlation characteristics, drivers, and changes, Water Resources Research
