Caravan extension Denmark - Danish dataset for large-sample hydrology

Authors/Creators

  • 1. Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland

Description

Caravan is an open community dataset of meteorological forcing data, catchment attributes, and discharge data for catchments around the world: https://zenodo.org/record/6578598. We have employed the published code to derive meteorological forcing data and catchment attributes from global data sources to extend Caravan with data for 308 Danish catchments. 

For the processing of the data the following guide was followed step by step: https://github.com/kratzert/Caravan/wiki/Extending-Caravan-with-new-basins

The basins and the runoff data are described in more detail by Koch & Schneider (2022).
