ABSTRACT:

This data serves as a data repository for McDowell et al, XXXX. It includes the Hydrus 1D input and output files for 12 different scenarios: three different soil profiles simulated for four different year with varying total annual precipitation. These files are located in the Hydrus 1D model results folder and for more information on the file names see the README text. The initial conditions for each model were determined by modelling the 3 years prior with daily time steps. These spin-up models are not included in the repository. This repository also contains the measured soil water retention curves (SWRC) and hydraulic conductivity curves (HCC) used as model inputs. The SWRC and HCC were measured using a Hyprop2 (METER Group) and all the measurements are location in the Hyprop_measurements excel file. Each sheet provides the raw data and the SWRC and conductivity HCC evaluations for a different sample. These data provide the measurements, not the fitted cuvres. The data can be fitted with different SWRC/HCC models using the raw data and free HYPROP-FIT software or fitting the model directly to the measurement data included here using R or other statistical packages.
