Monthly normalized scaled surface wind friction velocity in the Uinta-Piceance Basin (UT, CO) for March to October from 2001 to 2016 These data were compiled to conduct a study on the effect of oil and gas development on dust emission potential in the Upper Colorado River Basin. The objectives of the study were to 1) assess the effect of oil and gas development on surface roughness, and 2) model the resultant effect of oil and gas development on sediment mass flux for a range of 10-m wind speeds and threshold wind friction velocities. These data represent monthly means of normalized scaled surface wind friction velocity - a metric modelled from land surface albedo that approximates surface roughness - of March to October of the years 2001 to 2016. These data are representative of disturbed and undisturbed sites located in five climate-soil strata...
