CAMELS-AUS v2: updated hydrometeorological timeseries and landscape attributes for an enlarged set of catchments in Australia

Version 2 of the Australian edition of the Catchment Attributes and Meteorology for Large-sample Studies (CAMELS) series of datasets. Since publication in 2021, CAMELS-AUS (Australia) has served as a resource for the study of hydrological change, arid-zone hydrology, and hydrological model improvement. In this update, the dataset has been significantly enhanced both temporally and spatially. The new dataset comprises information for over twice as many catchments (561 compared to 222). The streamflow and climatic information are updated a further eight years (2022 compared to 2014). Lastly, the attribute information is improved, particularly with respect to hydrological statistics (signatures) and uncertainty in streamflow. Together, these updates make CAMELS-AUS Version 2 a more comprehensive and current resource for hydrological research and applications.
