Twelve digit hydrologic unit soil moisture and recharge from the National Hydrologic Model Infrastructure with the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System

This dataset is part of the National Water Census Water Budget Estimation and Evaluation Project's ongoing development of best estimates of daily historical water budgets for about 100,000 hydrologic units across the United States. In this release, estimates of soil moisture and recharge are added to the already released estimates of streamflow and precipitation. All these estimates are made available per twelve-digit hydrologic unit code watershed as contained in the NHDPlusV2 dataset. As this project progresses, it is expected that a complete closed water budget generated from the same water budget model will succeed this data release. For background on generation of these wate rbudget variables, see: Hay, L.E., 2019, Application of the National Hydrologic Model Infrastructure with the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (NHM-PRMS), by HRU Calibrated Version: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9NM8K8W The water budget variables were converted to a hydrologic unit basis using area-weighted spatial interpolation. All code used for conversions are included as an attachment to this data release. Summary of Files Included: 1) hu12_ids.csv - twelve digit hydrologic unit code identifiers used in all files. 2) timesteps.csv - timesteps used in all files. 3) nhm_recharge.nc - NetCDF version of recharge data 4) nhm_recharge_grid.csv - One timestep per row version of recharge data 5) nhm_recharge_timeseries.csv - One HUC12 per row version of recharge data 6) nhm_soil_moist.nc - NetCDF version of soil moisture data 7) nhm_soil_moisture_grid.csv - One timestep per row version of soil moisture data 8) nhm_soil_moisture_timeseries.csv - One HUC12 per row version of soil moisture data 9) scripts.zip - A reproducible R workflow to create outputs implemented with the drake package.
