Data and code for: Impacts of changing snowfall on seasonal complementarity of hydroelectric and solar power

Data and code to reproduce analyses in manuscript entitled: Influence of changing snowfall on seasonal complementarity of hydroelectric and solar power. Submitted to Environmental Research: Infrastructure and Sustainability.

The contents include the following scripts and files, listed below. Scripts are listed in the order needed to reproduce the analysis, though intermediate data products have been saved so it is not necessary to reproduce the initial analytical steps.

R/

eia923_860.R: extracts solar and hydropower production data; requires local download of EIA data.

gridMET_swep.R: downloads and summarises gridmet data; does not require prior local download.

fdr.R: function to calculate the p-value associated with a given false discovery rate as described in the associated manuscript.

combine_data.R combines solar, hydropower, and SWE/P data

analysis.Rmd: primary script in which analyses are conducted

data/

annual_swep.csv: output from gridMET_swep.R with annual SWE/P for each watershed in the study

monthly_hydro.csv: output from eia923_860.R

monthly_solar.csv: output from eia923_860.R

combined_variables.csv: combines variables above in one CSV

watersheds_wbd_ss: shapefiles for watersheds that drain to each dam used in the study, derived as described in the manuscript.
