Daily Obserational Hydrometeorology data set: CONUS extent with Canadian extent of the Columbia River Basin

Similar methodology to above, a data set of observed daily and monthly averaged precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature, gridded to a 1/16° (~6km) resolution spanning CONUS and the Canadian portion of the Columbia River Basin, with temporal coverage 1915-2011. The precipit

Daily Observational Hydrometeorology data set: North American Extent

A data set of observed daily and monthly averaged precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature, gridded to a 1/16° (~6km) resolution that spans the entire country of Mexico, the conterminous U.S. (CONUS), and regions of Canada south of 53º N for the period 1950-2013.

Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model parameters at 1/16°

The model parameters used to simulate the hydrologic fluxes and states in the two data above sets are available here on the Livneh Research Group server.

Remotely sensed ensemble of the water cycle

We present a new REmotely Sensed ENsemble of the water cycle (REESEN). The REESEN approach generates a large number of realizations of the remotely sensed water budget and enforces closure for each realization. The REESEN approach is applied to 24 large river basins from Oct. 2002- Dec. 2014.

E-SMAP: Evaporation-Soil Moisture Active Passive

This is an observationally-based dataset of soil evaporation for the conterminous U.S. (CONUS), gridded to a 9 km resolution for the time-period of April 2015-March 2019.
