Summary

Lake temperature is an important environmental metric for understanding habitat suitability for many freshwater species and is especially useful when temperatures are predicted throughout the water column (known as temperature profiles). This dataset provides estimates of water temperature at half meter depths for eight reservoirs in Missouri, USA using version 3 of the General Lake Model (Hipsey et al. 2019). The reservoirs are: Bull Shoals Lake, Lake Ozark, Lake Stockton, Mark Twain Lake, Pomme De Terre Lake, Table Rock Lake, Truman Reservoir, and Wapapello Lake. Both calibrated and uncalibrated model configurations (see 'GLM_{cal|uncal}_nml.zip' files), as well as, predicted temperatures (see 'GLM_{cal|uncal}_profile_results.zip' [...]
