Monitoring data from a managed aquifer recharge system that collects stormwater runoff in central coastal California. Precipitation, runoff, infiltration, sediment, survey

This dataset contains six years of monitoring data from a managed aquifer recharge system that collects stormwater runoff. Runoff from a drainage area of 173 acres is diverted into a 4.3-acre infiltration basin. There is a small sediment detention basin that the runoff passes through before reaching the infiltration basin. This dataset includes: - Raw precipitation records from the field site and daily precipitation records - Calculations of daily runoff collected (measured as flow rate through a culvert feeding the infiltration basin) - Mass balance calculations to estimate the average daily infiltration rate - Field measurements of sediment accumulation throughout the basin - Survey of the field site (requires the program Surfer to open) - Grain size data from hundreds of sediment samples collected from throughout the system - Estimations of daily vertical infiltration rate at three points in the infiltration basin These data are part of a study was published in Journal of Environmental Management.
