Hydrometeorological data from Baker Creek Research Watershed, Northwest Territories, Canada
It is uncommon to collect long-term coordinated hydrometeorological and hydrological data in northern circumpolar regions. However, such datasets can be very valuable for engineering design, improving environmental prediction tools or detecting change. This dataset documents physiographic, hydromete...
