West Fork of the Kickapoo River Temperature Modeling: Summer 2023

This dataset contains model files and field observations of local hydrology, water temperature, and meteorology from the summer of 2023 in the West Fork of the Kickapoo River watershed collected by Ben Sellers and Eric Booth at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Water temperature data were collected using HOBO Water Temp V2 Pro temperature loggers. Hydraulic measurements were collected using a SonTek Flowtracker 2 handheld acoustic doppler velocimeter. Meteorological data were recorded with HOBO U30 weather station. Temperature and meteorological data are reported at an hourly timestep. Observations were used to calibrate and validate a Heat Source 9 stream temperature model for the summer of 2023, used to model the effect of channel width/depth and shade from riparian vegetation on stream temperatures.

本数据集包含威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校（University of Wisconsin-Madison）的Ben Sellers与Eric Booth于2023年夏季在基卡普河（Kickapoo River）流域西支流采集的本地水文、水温及气象的模型文件与野外观测数据。水温数据通过HOBO Water Temp V2 Pro温度记录仪采集；水力测量采用SonTek Flowtracker 2手持式声学多普勒测速仪完成；气象数据由HOBO U30气象站记录。温度与气象数据以小时为时间步长上报。这些观测数据被用于校准和验证2023年夏季的Heat Source 9溪流温度模型，该模型旨在模拟河道宽深比及河岸植被遮荫对溪流温度的影响。
