McMurdo Dry Valleys Lawson Creek Gage Measurements

As part of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, a systematic sampling program has been undertaken to monitor the glacial meltwater streams in that region. These tables contain data pertaining to continuous monitored water quality and quantity parameters measured with automatic recording devices on streams in this region.This metadata record describes the hydrological data gathered since 1994 at the Lawson Creek. The data associated with this record can be used to extrapolate the discontinued hydrological data nearby at the Santa Fe Stream.

本数据集作为南极洲麦克默多干谷区长时序生态研究（Long Term Ecological Research, LTER）项目的组成部分，针对该区域的冰川融水溪流开展了系统性采样监测工作。本数据表收录了利用自动记录设备对该区域溪流进行连续监测所获取的水质与水量参数相关数据。本元数据记录了自1994年起在劳森溪（Lawson Creek）采集的水文数据。本数据集附带的数据可用于外推附近已终止监测的圣菲溪（Santa Fe Stream）的水文数据。
