Pang and Lambourn Hydrometric Review 2008

This Review covers the weather, soil water, streamflow and groundwater data from the hydrological infrastructure networks in the Pang and Lambourn catchments, over the calendar year 2008, although in some cases for completeness and context it also includes earlier data. The aims of this annual report series are to provide: a) Succinct reviews of the current catchment hydrometry, b) A record of the data quality control procedures and metadata. c) Highlight any extreme events or observations of especial interest There is a large archive of historic data collected since 2002 in the LOCAR project, not all of which was subject to rigorous quality control checks and annotation, and so a significant additional output of this work has been to quality control these ‘legacy’ data too. The previous annual review for 2007 concentrated on the historic weather data, and this year’s review continues that work and addresses the historic archive of soil water measurements.
