Balance of N and P inputs to the Yakima River Basin, 1945-2012

The following 5 data tables accompany the submitted peer-reviewed journal article SG Grieger, JA Harrison. Long-term Disconnect between Nutrient Inputs and Riverine Exports in a Semi-arid, Agricultural Watershed: Yakima River Basin 1945-2012. JGR Biogeosciences Values refer to the Yakima River Watershed, which was defined as the area draining to USGS gauge 1210500 at Kiona, WA (which is 15,827 km2 identified by the 6-digit HUC 170300).These datasets were created May 2020 and modified May 2021. Dataset S1. YRB budget: Nutrient sources in kg of N or P per ha per year for budget years in the Yakima River Basin on and off agricultural landsDataset S2. Water quality: Instantaneous river TN, NO3, NH4, ON, TP, and DIP daily concentrations, loads measurements between 1947 to 2018 from USGS site 12510500 Yakima River at Kiona, WA Dataset S3. Interpolated budget: Linearly interpolated annual nutrient sources and estimated surplus of N and P from 1945 to 2012 in the Yakima River BasinDataset S4. Crop harvest: Total amount of N or P removed by specific crop groups in kg per year for the whole Yakima River Basin during agricultural census target years.Dataset S5. WRTDS monthly results: Monthly mean TN, NO3, and TP concentration and loads WRTDS results over time for Yakima River at Kiona, WA
