Walker Branch Watershed: 15-minute and Daily Stream Discharge and Annual Runoff

This data set reports 15-minute and daily stream discharge, and annual runoff for the West and East Forks draining Walker Branch Watershed (WBW). The long-term Walker Branch Hydrology Monitoring project was intended to document changes in the water balance (precipitation inputs, stream discharge outputs) for the WBW over time. This data set contains three data files of stream discharge (L/s) for 15-minute and daily intervals, and annual runoff (cm). The daily and annual datasets began in 1969 in both East and West Forks, while the 15-minute datasets began in 1994 in both Forks. Data were collected through 2014 for the West Fork, and through 2012 for the East Fork. The Walker Branch Watershed is located on the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge Reservation in eastern Tennessee.
