Sub-hourly water temperature data collected by UNBC's northern hydrometeorology group (NHG) across the Nechako Watershed, 2019-2021
Description
This is a dataset of water temperature time series collected at 15 minute intervals at 24 sites across the Nechako Watershed. Data are provided in comma-delimited format with one file for each site. Each file name identifies the site location. The first column contains the date/time (UTC) in the format MM/DD/YEAR HH:MM. The second column contains the corresponding water temperature in degrees Celsius to two decimals. The third column contains a recommended flag for data quality, with "P" representing a "pass", "F" denoting a "fail", and "B" denoting "backwater conditions" with the likely presence of ice and below freezing temperatures. Additional issues encountered at specific sites are identified in the attached "read me" file along with basic metadata (site coordinates, elevation and period of record). A map of the sites is also attached to depict their locations across the Nechako Watershed.
