Rainfall and runoff record for experimental microcatchments in peatlands at Kinder Scout (2010-2021) and Stalybridge (2019-2022), Peak District, UK

This dataset contains rainfall and runoff records, from pre- and post-restoration microcatchments (0.4-4 hectares), at two peatland sites in the Peak District, UK. Discharge data are provided as litres per second and rainfall data as millimetres. The Kinder Scout site contains 3 microcatchments with discharge records covering 2010-2021 at 10-minute timesteps. The Stalybridge site contains 10 microcatchments covering 2019-2022 at 5-minute timesteps. Different microcatchments had different restoration treatments, please refer to documentation for specific details.

Statement

Runoff data were collected using V-notch weirs installed across an erosional gully at microcatchment outlets. Pressure transducers recorded the height of water above the V-notch, which was subsequently converted to discharge using a weir equation. Manual stageboard readings and depth of flow above the v-notch were measured at the time of downloading pressure transducer data. Sensor depth at the time of manual readings was used to calibrate sensor depth to height of flow above the V-notch. Rainfall data were collected using a tip bucket rain gauge. These recorded rainfall at a resolution of 0.2mm. More details on data collection, calibration and QA are available in the documentation.
