Long-term record of lake and stream biogeochemistry from the Loch Vale Watershed, Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA: 1981-2024
The Loch Vale watershed (LVWS) project is a long-term research and monitoring program that addresses watershed-scale ecosystem processes, particularly as they respond to atmospheric deposition and climate variability. The LVWS is a 7 square kilometer high-altitude basin located within Rocky Mountain National Park in the Colorado Front Range (Colorado, United States of America). The data include lake and stream year-round measurements of physical water parameters, nutrients, major ions, trace metals, silica, and chlorophyll collected from lakes and streams within the LVWS basin.
