   Carey, Cayelan C.; Breef-Pilz, Adrienne (April 2023, Environmental Data Initiative)

   Discharge rates and water temperature of the primary inflow tributary into Falling Creek Reservoir (Vinton, Virginia, USA) were measured at a gauged weir on a 15-minute temporal resolution from May 2013 to December 2022. Falling Creek Reservoir is a drinking water supply reservoir owned and managed by the Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA). The dataset consists of water temperatures and discharge rates calculated from a pressure transducer deployed by the WVWA in a rectangular weir (15 May 2013 - 06 June 2019) and in a v-notched weir (07 June 2019 - 31 December 2022) at the same site. From 07 June 2019 to 31 December 2022, water temperature and discharge data were also collected from a Virginia Tech-deployed (VT) pressure transducer installed in the same weir.

   Discharge rates and water temperature of the primary inflow tributary into Falling Creek Reservoir (Vinton, Virginia, USA), also known as Tunnel Branch, were measured at a gauged weir on a 15-minute temporal resolution from May 2013 to December 2023. Falling Creek Reservoir is a drinking water supply reservoir owned and managed by the Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA). The dataset consists of water temperatures and discharge rates calculated from a pressure transducer deployed by the WVWA in a rectangular weir (15 May 2013 - 06 June 2019) and in a v-notched weir (07 June 2019 - 31 December 2023) at the same site. From 07 June 2019 to 31 December 2023, water temperature and discharge data were also collected from a Virginia Tech-deployed (VT) pressure transducer installed in the same weir. NOTE this verison replaces edi.202.11, where there was an error in calculating the WVWA_Flow_cms from 18 April 2016 15:15:00 EST - 07 June 2019 00:00:00 EST. This is corrected in version edi.202.12.

3. Time series of high-frequency meteorological data at Falling Creek Reservoir, Virginia, USA 2015-2024

   Carey, Cayelan C; Breef-Pilz, Adrienne (January 2025, Environmental Data Initiative)

   This dataset consists of meteorological variables measured by a research-grade Campbell Scientific meteorological station deployed on the dam of Falling Creek Reservoir (37.3025, -79.83667). Falling Creek Reservoir (Vinton, Virginia, USA), is owned and operated by the Western Virginia Water Authority as a primary water source. The meteorological variables include photosynthetic active radiation, barometric pressure, ambient air temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, wind speed and direction, shortwave radiation, infrared radiation, and albedo. All variables were measured every 5 minutes from 2015-07-07 15:45:00 to 2015-07-13 11:28:00 (YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss) and every minute thereafter to the end of the dataset at 2024-12-31 23:59:00. We applied substantial quality assurance/quality control protocols to the raw observations, as described in the methods.

4. Manually-collected discharge data for multiple inflow and outflow tributaries at Falling Creek Reservoir, Beaverdam Reservoir, and Carvins Cove Reservoir, Virginia, USA from 2019-2024

   https://doi.org/10.6073/pasta/a4289f0a0ae95385c68973e583a2a2f6  

   Carey, Cayelan C; Breef-Pilz, Adrienne; Howard, Dexter W; Bauer, Carly E (January 2025, Environmental Data Initiative)

   Discharge rates at multiple inflow streams into Falling Creek Reservoir (Vinton, Virginia, USA), Beaverdam Reservoir (Vinton, Virginia, USA), Carvins Cove Reservoir (Roanoke, Virginia, USA), and one outflow at Falling Creek Reservoir were measured manually using multiple methods from 2019-2024. Falling Creek Reservoir, Beaverdam Reservoir, and Carvins Cove Reservoir are owned and operated by the Western Virginia Water Authority as drinking water sources for Roanoke, Virginia. The dataset consists of discharge rates calculated using one of four methods: handheld flowmeter, salt injection, velocity float, or bucket method. Data were collected weekly to monthly from February through October 2019 at Falling Creek and Beaverdam Reservoir, and approximately monthly to seasonally at Falling Creek and Carvins Cove from 2020-2024.

5. Time series of carbon dioxide and methane fluxes measured with eddy covariance for Falling Creek Reservoir in southwestern Virginia, USA during 2020-2024

   https://doi.org/10.6073/pasta/b644e44cd6a13798ebe981fa99ea809f  

   Carey, Cayelan C; Breef-Pilz, Adrienne; Kandel, Bibek; Johnson, Mark S (January 2025, Environmental Data Initiative)

   We measured carbon dioxide and methane flux exchange with the atmosphere at the deepest site of Falling Creek Reservoir (Vinton, Virginia, USA) every 30 minutes from 04 April 2020 to 31 December 2024. Falling Creek Reservoir is a drinking water supply reservoir owned and managed by the Western Virginia Water Authority (WVWA) as a primary drinking water source. The dataset consists of micrometeorological and flux data collected using an eddy covariance system (LiCor Biosciences, Lincoln, Nebraska, USA) and analyzed with associated Eddy Pro software (Eddy Pro Version 7.0.6), including carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor. All analysis scripts are included for data processing and quality assurance/quality control following best practices.
