In situ soil moisture measurements for the Hillslope study from 5 sites located in Macon County, North Carolina, within the Upper Little Tennessee River Basin

This study was conducted across 5 sites that served as part of the regional hillslope study. Synoptic soil moisture measurements were measured using a Theta Probe that measures surface soil moisture up to a depth of 6cm. Site locations include 18 plots in WS14, 17 plots in Fall Branch, 13 plots in WS18, 10 plots on Mica City Road, and 12 plots at Ammons Creek. The measurement period varied among sites. The most complete is WS14 lasting about 3 years of regular measurements starting in 2011.
