Robinson Forest, in eastern Kentucky, is a research forest owned and operated by the University of Kentucky (UK) since the 1920s. The UK Department of Forestry and Natural Resources began collecting streamflow and water-chemistry data in the forest starting with weirs at Falling Rock and Little Millseat in 1971, and supplemented by weirs at Coles Fork and Clemons Fork in 1973. This digital dataset includes information about how and where these data were collected, and how these data were processed. These data include streamflow, water temperature, and water chemistry (turbidity, chloride, nitrates, sulfates, ammonium, pH, alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, conductivity, total organic carbon, and phosphates), and were collected from four streams from 1971-2018.
