Purpose

This Data Release summarizes measurements of hydraulic and physical properties of soils at boreal forest sites in interior Alaska, USA. These measurements provide a foundation to reduce uncertainty of parameters in hydrologic models that include cold regions processes for assessing impacts of wildfire and climate disturbance on water quality and quantity.
