Data sets

Data From: Weather, Snow, and Streamflow data from four western juniper-dominated Experimental Catchments in south western Idaho, USA. P. R. Kormos, D. G. Marks, A. R. Boehm, S. Havens, A. Hedrick, F. Pierson, C. J. Williams, S. P. Hardegree, N. F. Glenn, J. D. Bates, and A. J. Svejcar https://doi.org/10.15482/USDA.ADC/1254010

Short summary

Data are presented that are essential to assessing the impacts of western juniper encroachment and woodland treatments in the interior Great Basin region of the western USA. This woodland expansion into sagebrush ecosystems influences the vegetation community and the hydrology and soil resources of an area, which affect wildlife habitat, ecosystem quality, and local economies. Data include weather, snow, and stream time series, as well as lidar-derived topographic and vegetation height data.
