Southern Great Plains 1997 (SGP97) Hydrology: Co-operative Agency Reservoir Data

dataset
posted on 2023-11-30, 08:39 authored by Long-Term Agroecosystem Research - LTAR, Southern Plains

The Co-operative Agency Reservoir dataset is one of various hydrological datasets provided for the Southern Great Plains 1997 (SGP97) Project. This dataset contains reservoir data from 26 Co-operative Agency stations within the Enhanced Observing Period (EOP) domain and time period. No additional quality control was performed by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research/Joint Office for Science Support (UCAR/JOSS). The Co-operative Agency reservoir dataset is provided "as is" in the original format. The Co-operative Agency data is in a non-consistent, ASCII format.

Intended use

SGP97 is set in a subhumid environment during early summer. Within this setting, the objectives of SGP97 are (1) to establish that the retrieval algorithms for surface soil moisture developed at higher spatial resolution using truck- and aircraft-based sensors can be extended to the coarser resolutions expected from satellite platforms; (2) to verify spatial-temporal estimators of soil moisture and to examine the utility of pedotransfer function in hydrologic modeling; (3) to examine the feasibility of inferring soil moisture and temperature profiles using surface observations in conjunction with in situ measurements, and (4) to examine the effect of soil moisture on the evolution of the atmospheric boundary layer and clouds over the Southern Great Plains during the warm season.
