Marcell Experimental Forest daily streamflow data

This data publication contains daily streamflow data from 1961-2017 at the Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in Balsam Township, Itasca County, Minnesota. The data came from six peatland / upland forest watersheds instrumented for long-term hydrological and biogeochemical research. Data include daily streamflow for the following watersheds: S1 (1961-1981), S2 (1961-2017), S4 (1962-2017), S5 (1962-2017), and S6 (1976-2017).
The Marcell Experimental Forest was formally established in 1962. The MEF contains six watersheds (and other study sites), each consisting of an upland portion and a peatland that is the source of a stream leaving the watershed. The watersheds and environmental monitoring at the MEF are part of a long-term research program on the hydrology and biogeochemistry of watersheds with uplands and northern peatlands (Kolka et al. 2011).
