Hydrology_site data of 152 forested catchments

Data used in figures and tables in the manuscript.Data1. Data of catchment location, catchment area, elevation, mean slope, geology, vegetation, and observed annual precipitation, annual runoff and annual mean temperature and calculated evapotranspiration and Inter-catchment groundwater flow in 152 forested catchments in Japan. The observed annual precipitation, annual runoff, temperature, and site information data were collected from published articles or reports. We used grid precipitation and temperature data from 1 km2 mesh grid data [The Agro-Meteorological Grid Square Data, National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (https://amu.rd.naro.go.jp/)].Data 2. Annual mean precipitation (P) and temperature (T) for 1986-1990 at 66 meteorological stations in Japan and potential evapotranspiration (E0), evapotranspiration (ET) estimated by Kondo et al (1992) and this study.Data 3. Annual water balance and mean temperature data in Shirasaka Experimental Watershed, Ananomiya Experimental Watershed, Higashiyama Experimental Watershed, Kiryu Experimental Watershed catchment K, M, A, Kamabuchi Experimental Watershed catchment No1, No2, and Sarukawa Experimental Watershed.Data 4. Surface watershed area, ratio of bedrock watershed area, IGF and ECI data of Fudoji Experimental Watershed.<br>
