LAGOS-NE Annual, seasonal, and monthly climate data for lakes and watersheds in a 17-state region of the U.S.

These data describe climate at different temporal scales and can easily be integrated into analyses using limnological and geospatial data in the LAGOS-NE database. This includes 1) monthly, seasonal and annual PRISM temperature and precipitation data at the hydrologic unit code-12 (HUC-12) watershe...

Description
Summary:These data describe climate at different temporal scales and can easily be integrated into analyses using limnological and geospatial data in the LAGOS-NE database. This includes 1) monthly, seasonal and annual PRISM temperature and precipitation data at the hydrologic unit code-12 (HUC-12) watershed scale, 2) monthly, seasonal and annual Palmer Hydrological Drought Index (PHDI) data for all lakes over 4ha in LAGOS-NE by lagoslakeid (unique lake identifier), and 3) 30-year averages (1981-2010) of monthly, seasonal and annual PRISM temperature and precipitation data at the HUC-12 watershed scale linked to all lakes over 4ha in LAGOS-NE by lagoslakeid.
