Daily summarized seasonal measurements of discharge, water temperature, and specific conductivity from Commonwealth Stream at C1, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (1993-2020, ongoing)

As part of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, a systematic sampling program has been undertaken to monitor the glacial meltwater streams in that region. This package contains daily summaries derived from 15-minute measurements of water quality and quantity parameters measured with automatic recording devices on streams in this region. Specifically, this metadata record describes the daily hydrological summaries for the McMurdo Dry Valley's Commonwealth Stream at C1, located in the Fryxell Basin of Taylor Valley. Measurements commenced during the 1993-94 austral summer and are ongoing. This dataset extends through the first half of the 2019-20 field season.

作为南极洲麦克默多干谷长期生态研究（Long Term Ecological Research, LTER）计划的组成部分，研究团队已开展系统性采样项目，对该区域的冰川融水溪流进行监测。本数据包包含基于该区域溪流自动记录设备所采集的15分钟级水质与水量参数生成的每日汇总数据。具体而言，本元数据记录针对位于泰勒谷弗莱克塞尔盆地的麦克默多干谷C1站点的英联邦溪（Commonwealth Stream）的每日水文汇总数据进行说明。监测工作始于1993-1994年南极夏季，目前仍在持续进行中。本数据集的时间跨度覆盖至2019-2020年野外季的上半年。
