Abstract

This repository was created to store, organize, and share data collected for two closely related NSF EPSCoR projects, both committed to better understanding flash flooding in headwater streams and mitigating flood impacts in Appalachia. The repository primarily contains data from water pressure leveloggers and various real-time telemetered water quality and flow sensors. The collected data has been carefully extracted, processed, and stored in Excel files (.xlsx and .csv) to ensure compatibility with various analysis tools.

The EPSCoR projects include the FLASH (Flooding in Appalachian Streams and Headwaters) Initiative: Mitigating impacts of climate change and flash flooding in Appalachia, and CLIMBS (Climate Resilience through Multidisciplinary Big Data Learning, Prediction and Building Response Systems) Project 4: Mitigate Flood Impacts. Both projects aim to enhance understanding of flash flooding and co-create effective mitigation strategies across Appalachia and the United States. FLASH further aims to empower vulnerable communities with knowledge, tools, resources, and technologies to build flash flood resilience via heavy focus on community relationships, involvement, and local student participation. CLIMBS Project 4 focuses more on improvement of flash flooding modeling and prediction to help provide actionable information to mitigate the loss of life and property.

In addition to providing secure storage, this repository is designed to support efficient data sharing, transparency, and interdisciplinary collaboration. By offering a well-organized dataset, it enables researchers to analyze and build upon existing data, promoting high-quality research outputs. The repository ultimately aims to advance understanding and inform decision-making in water resource management for Eastern Kentucky and Appalachia.
