Seasonal high-frequency measurements of discharge, water temperature, and specific conductivity from Crescent Stream at F8, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (1990-2023, ongoing)

As part of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, a systematic sampling program has been undertaken to monitor the glacial meltwater streams in that region. This package contains data pertaining to continuous monitored water quality and quantity parameters measured with automatic recording devices on streams in this region. Specifically, this metadata record describes the hydrology data set for the McMurdo Dry Valleys' Crescent Stream at the F8 streamgage, located in the Fryxell Basin of Taylor Valley. Measurements commenced during the 1990-91 season. This dataset extends through the first half of the 2022-23 field season.
