Hydraulic Properties of Soils in Burned and Unburned Watersheds in Western Oregon Following the 2022 Cedar Creek Fire

The dataset includes soil hydraulic properties collected in burned and unburned basins following the 2022 Cedar Creek Fire in western Oregon. Soils were collected from July to September 2023. For each soil sample, sorptivity, field-saturated hydraulic conductivity, texture (sand, silt, and clay fractions), organic matter concentration, bulk density, wetting front potential, saturated water content, initial water content were, and the ratio of sorptivity squared to field-saturated hydraulic conductivity were measured. Additionally, at each soil sample location, elevation, topographic slope, aspect, northing, topographic position index, burn severity, and the differenced normalized burn ratio were extracted from publicly available remote sensing datasets.
