Data to accompany "The role of infrequently mobile boulders in modulating landscape evolution and geomorphic hazards"

This dataset contains all data presented in Shobe et al (2021; <i>Earth-Science Reviews</i>) that was not previously published in a similar form elsewhere. Specifically, this dataset includes the compiled erosion rates and maximum grain sizes used to calculate boulder residence times (Figure 2) as well as new boulder size data from the Eel River basin, California (Figure 3).<br>The data for Figure 2 includes two csv files. fig2_unpaired_res_time_data.csv includes the erosion rate and grain size data compiled from previous studies in which measurements are not paired, meaning that erosion rates and grain sizes were not measured in the same location and there is therefore some inherent interpretation in combining measurements. For such locations, different authors typically measured the two quantities, and locations may be many km apart. fig2_paired_res_time_data.csv includes two datasets in which grain size and erosion rate were collected at the same locations.<br>The data for Figure 3 includes three zipped geodatabase files and three csv files. The fig3_*_long_axis.gdb geodatabase files hold poly line layers for all measured boulders in the Eel River study. There are three geodatabase files, one each for hillslope, channel, and earthflow boulders. The fig3_*_boulder_sizes.csv files contain boulder long axis measurements, one each for hillslope, channel, and earthflow boulders. <br>All references in the data refer to references in the paper.
