Streamflow and rain event data from the Tromble experimental watershed weir in the Jornada Basin, southern New Mexico USA, during 2 periods: 1977-1985 and 2003-2011

This data package contains long-term hydrologic event data collected in the Tromble experimental watershed in the Jornada Basin of southern New Mexico, USA. Streamflow and precipitation data were collected at an instrumented flume below a 4.7 hectare shrub-dominated catchment during two periods: 1977-1985 and 2003-2011. This dataset was assembled to evaluate the effects of changes in rainfall on runoff in this Chihuahauan desert watershed. Four data files are available here, including event precipitation totals and sub-hourly runoff details for hydrologic events during both time periods. Variables measured include event precipitation, stage heights at the flume, and calculated discharge rates. This study is complete. For further information, refer to: Turnbull, L., A. J. Parsons, J. Wainwright, and J. P. Anderson. "Runoff responses to long-term rainfall variability in a shrub-dominated catchment." Journal of arid environments 91 (2013): 88-94.

Streamflow data for Como creek, 2006 - 2014

This is a summary of discharge from the Como Creek catchment located on and below the southeast flank of Niwot Ridge (40°N, 105°W) in Colorado, USA, approximately 4–9 km east of the Continental Divide. The catchment is 5.36 km2 in area and ranges in elevation from 2900 to 3560 m. Discharge is calculated from tenminute data from a pressure transducer located in a stilling well, and weekly stage and velocity measurements from the center of the weir. Measurements began in 2004 and continue through 2014, with a gap in 2013 during which the pressure transducer was damaged.

SEAS5/System4-LARSIM_ME Seasonal Streamflow Forecasts for German Waterways

<p>The datasets provided were produced as part of the IMPREX project for work package 4, task 1 &ldquo;<em>Development of the regional and European scale reforecast dataset of hydrological extremes</em> &ldquo;, work package 4, task 2 &ldquo;<em>Analysis of the impact of changes in precipitation attributes from short to medium and climatic ranges</em>&rdquo; and work package 9, task 3 &ldquo;<em>Case studies</em>&rdquo;. Analysis of the datasets are published in Mei&szlig;ner et al. 2017, in Deliverable 4.2 &bdquo; <em>The sensitivity of sub-seasonal to seasonal streamflow forecasts to meteorological forcing quality, modelled hydrology and the initial hydrological conditions</em> &ldquo; (Arnal et al. 2017) and in Deliverable 4.3 &ldquo;<em>Forecast skill developments</em>&rdquo; (Weerts et al. 2019). The aim was to evaluate the potential skill of seasonal streamflow forecasting for the German waterways Rhine, Elbe and Danube.</p> <p>As seasonal meteorological forecast data the reforecast dataset from ECMWF&rsquo;s Seasonal Forecast System 4 (S4 hereafter) (Molteni et al. 2011) as well as from the fifth generation of ECMWF&rsquo;s Seasonal forecasting system SEAS5 (ECMWF 2017, Johnson et al. 2018, Owens &amp; Hewson 2018) of the period 1981 &ndash; 2016 were used.</p> <p>The horizontal resolution of System 4 is approximately 80 km. In operational mode the ensemble consists of 51 members generated by using an ensemble of initial conditions and by the use of stochastic physics. Re-forecasts starting on the 1st of each month for the years 1981-2016 are generated with the same model as used for the operational forecast. For the period 1981 &ndash; 2011 the ensemble size varies between 15 members (initialization months January, March, April, June, July, September, October, December) and 51 members (for the remaining months). Since 2012, the ensemble size is 51 members all over the year (operational forecasts).</p> <p>The fifth generation of ECMWF seasonal forecasting system SEAS5 replaced System 4 in November 2017. The horizontal resolution of the model is 0.4&deg;x0.4&deg; (approx. 36 km). The ensemble consists of 51-members created using a combination of Sea Surface Temperature SST and atmospheric initial condition perturbations and the activation of stochastic physics (ECMWF 2017). Re-Forecasts with the ensemble size of 25 members starting on the 1st of each month for the years 1981-2016 are generated with the same model as used for the operational forecast.</p> <p>The hydrological model applied is called LARSIM-ME (ME &ndash; MittelEuropa = Central Europe) and is based in the model software LARSIM (Large Area Runoff SImulation Model) originally developed by Ludwig &amp; Bremicker (2006). LARSIM-ME covers the catchments of the rivers Rhine, Elbe, Weser/Ems, Odra and Upper Danube. The total catchment size simulated by the model is approximately 800,000 km&sup2;. The spatial resolution is 5 km x 5 km and the computational time-step is daily. For more details about the model see Mei&szlig;ner et al. (2017).</p> <p>The precipitation and temperature data, used to force the hydrological model in simulation mode up to the initialization of the particular forecast, is taken from the E-OBS dataset, version 18 (Haylock et al. 2008). The downward surface solar radiation is extracted from the ERA-Interim reanalysis (Dee et al. 2011) for the period 1979-2018. For further details on data processing see Mei&szlig;ner et al. (2017).</p> <p>As meteorological seasonal forecasts tend to drift towards the model climate with increasing lead-time, the outputs daily total precipitation and air temperature from S4, interpolated to a 50 km x 50 km grid (multiple of the 5 km x 5 km model grid) and from SEAS5, interpolated to a 25 km x 25 km grid, respectively, were drift-corrected with the meteorological observation dataset used for the baseline simulation. As drift correction method the quantile-quantile method (Piani et al. 2010) was used. We corrected daily values of the different variables on a monthly basis, which means each daily value of the same month is corrected by the same scaling. Separate drift correction factors were estimated for each forecast initialization date (calendar month) and monthly lead time (month 1 to month 7) based on the reforecast datasets. In the final step the corrected precipitation and temperature were downscaled to the 5 km by 5 km model grid and used as forcing to create the streamflow re-forecast dataset with LARSIM-ME.</p> <p><strong>Dataset Q_OBS_DE.nc:</strong></p> <p>Mean daily observed flow of the gauges Kaub, Koeln, Ruhrort / Rhine, Pfelling, Hofkirchen / Danube, Desden, Magdeburg Strombruecke, Neu-Darchau / Elbe for the period 1951&ndash;2017 stored as variable <strong><em>q_obs(time=24472, stations=8</em>)</strong>.</p> <p>Data originate from the database of gauge measurements of the Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration (WSV).

ENS-LARSIM_ME Monthly Streamflow Forecasts for German Waterways

<p>The datasets provided here were produced as part of the IMPREX project for work package 4, task 1 &ldquo;<em>Development of the regional and European scale reforecast dataset of hydrological extremes</em>&ldquo; and work package 9, task 3 &ldquo;<em>Case studies</em>&rdquo;. Analysis of the datasets are published in Deliverable 9.4 &ldquo;<em>Semi-operational forecasting system for Rhine, Danube and Elbe to support improved transport cost planning</em>&ldquo; (Klein &amp; Mei&szlig;ner 2019). The aim was to evaluate the potential skill of monthly streamflow forecasting for the German waterways Rhine, Elbe and Danube.</p> <p>As meteorological forcing data to calculate monthly flow forecasts the extended-range forecasts from ECMWF-ENS are applied. Twice a week (Monday and Thursday), the ENS model is extended to a lead time up to 46 days by ECMWF. The horizontal resolution for the first 15 days is 0.2&deg;x0.2&deg; (approx. 18 km) and from day 15 to day 46 it is 0.4&deg;x0.4&deg; (approx. 36 km). The ensemble consists of 1 control forecasts and 50 perturbed members, made from slightly different initial atmospheric and oceanic conditions (Owens &amp; Hewson 2018). Re-Forecasts are generated with the same model as used for the operational forecasts for the past 20 years, starting on the same day and month as each real time forecast. The ensemble size is 11-member, which means that in total 20 years x 11 members = 220 forecasts are available for each real time forecast date. The re-forecasts are also created twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays) and are available a week in advance.</p> <p>The hydrological model applied is called LARSIM-ME (ME &ndash; MittelEuropa = Central Europe) and is based in the model software LARSIM (Large Area Runoff SImulation Model) originally developed by Ludwig &amp; Bremicker (2006). LARSIM-ME covers the catchments of the rivers Rhine, Elbe, Weser/Ems, Odra and Upper Danube. The total catchment size simulated by the model is approximately 800,000 km&sup2;. The spatial resolution is 5 km x 5 km and the computational time-step is daily. For more details about the model see Mei&szlig;ner et al. (2017).</p> <p>Real-time meteorological station data (precipitation, temperature and global radiation) was interpolated to the 5 km x 5 km model grid and used as meteorological forcing to initialize LARSIM-ME at the forecast date.</p> <p>Re-forecasts for the hindcast dates 10th March 2016 &ndash; 09th March 2017 generating re-forecasts of the last 20 years were used. As station density of real-time meteorological station data is limited before 2000, only reforecasts with a forecast date after 1999 were considered. Daily total precipitation, daily mean air temperature and global radiation of the reforecast dataset of ECMWF-ENS were interpolated to the 5kmx5km model grid and used as forcing to create the streamflow re-forecast dataset with LARSIM-ME.</p> <p><strong>Dataset Q_OBS.nc:</strong></p> <p>Mean daily observed flow of the gauges Kaub, Koeln, Ruhrort / Rhine, Pfelling, Hofkirchen / Danube, Desden, Magdeburg Strombruecke, Neu-Darchau / Elbe for the period 1951&ndash;2017 stored as variable <strong>q_obs(time=24472, stations=8)</strong>.</p> <p>Data originate from the database of gauge measurements of the Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration (WSV).

Data from: Watershed classification predicts streamflow regime and organic carbon dynamics in the Northeast Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest

<p class="Abstract">Watershed classification has long been a key tool in the hydrological sciences, but few studies have been extended to biogeochemistry. We developed a combined hydro-biogeochemical classification for watersheds draining to the coastal margin of the Northeast Pacific coastal temperate rainforest (1,443,062<i> </i>km<sup>2</sup>), including 2,695 small coastal rivers (SCR) and 10 large continental watersheds. We used cluster analysis to group SCR watersheds into 12 types, based on watershed properties. The most important variables for distinguishing SCR watershed types were evapotranspiration, slope, snowfall, and total precipitation. We used both streamflow and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) measurements from rivers (<i>n</i> = 104 and 90 watersheds respectively) to validate the classification. Watershed types corresponded with broad differences in streamflow regime, mean annual runoff, DOC seasonality, and mean DOC concentration. These links between watershed type and river conditions enabled the first region-wide empirical characterization of river hydro-biogeochemistry at the land-sea margin, spanning extensive ungauged and unsampled areas. We found very high annual runoff (mean &gt; 3000 mm, <i>n</i> = 10) in three watershed types totaling 59,024 km<sup>2</sup> and ranging from heavily glacierized mountain watersheds with high flow in summer to a rain-fed mountain watershed type with high flow in fall-winter. DOC hotspots (mean &gt; 4 mg L<sup>-1</sup>, <i>n</i> = 14) were found in three other watershed types (48,557 km<sup>2</sup>) with perhumid rainforest climates and less-mountainous topography. We described four patterns of DOC seasonality linked to watershed hydrology, with fall-flushing being widespread. Hydro-biogeochemical watershed classification may be useful for other complex regions with sparse observation networks.</p>

S1 What Are the Key Drivers Controlling the Qualityof Seasonal Streamflow Forecasts?

<p>Recent technological advances in representation of processes in numerical climate models have led to skillful predictions, which can consequently increase the confidence of hydrological predictions and usability of hydroclimatic services. Given that many water-related stakeholders are affected by seasonal hydrological variations, there is a need to manage such variations to their advantage through better understanding of the drivers that influence hydrological predictability. Here we analyze the seasonal forecasts of streamflow volumes across about 35,400 basins in Europe, which lie along a strong gradient in terms of climatology, scale, and hydrological regime. We then link the seasonal volumetric errors to various physiographic-hydroclimatic descriptors and meteorological biases in order to identify the key drivers controlling predictability. Streamflow volumes over Europe are well predicted, yet with some geographic and seasonal variability; however, the predictability deteriorates with increasing lead time particularly in the winter months. Nevertheless, we show that the forecast quality is well correlated to a set of descriptors, which vary depending on the initialization month. The forecast quality of seasonal streamflow volumes is strongly dependent on the basin&#39;s hydrological regime, with limited predictability in relatively flashy basins. On the contrary, snow and/or baseflow dominated regions with long recessions show high streamflow predictability. Finally, climatology and precipitation forecast biases are also related to streamflow predictability, highlighting the importance of developing robust bias adjustment methods. Overall, this investigation shows that the seasonal streamflow predictability can be clustered, and hence regionalized, based on a priori knowledge of local hydroclimatic conditions.</p>
