The purpose of the QA/QC analysis was to test the application of different QA/QC methods and the development of regular (1-hour and 1-day) time series datasets, which can be served as benchmark for testing other QA/QC techniques, and will be applicable for ecohydrological modeling. The package includes a Readme file, two R Markdown html files, a series of 8 csv files: two input files of irregular measured groundwater levels, two output files with QA/QC flagging of original data, and four QA/QC-ed regular time series datasets.

The ER is the designated testbed of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA). Through WFSFA, observational networks have been established to measure stream discharge and precipitation chemistry. The ER is considered representative of many snow‐dominated headwaters of the Rocky Mountains. The study domain encompasses nearly 85 square km, a 1.4‐km vertical drop in elevation (4,120 to 2,760 m) and pristine alpine, subalpine, montane, and riparian ecosystems. The ER contains high‐energy mountain streams to low‐energy meandering floodplains and is eroding primarily into the Cretaceous, carbon‐rich, marine shale of the Mancos Formation.
