This data release supports U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Scientific Investigations Report 2023-5106, Groundwater Discharge by Evapotranspiration from the Amargosa Wild and Scenic River and Contributing Areas, Inyo and San Bernardino Counties, California. It consists of two comma-separated values (CSV) files containing data collected at two USGS atmospheric monitoring locations (USGS site identification numbers 355846116160401 and 355918116161801) beginning in January 2018 and lasting for approximately 1 year. The data include 30-minute values for cumulative normalized flux for 6 circular areas around each site and 30-minute values for unadjusted total evapotranspiration. The radii of the circular areas are 25, 50, 75, 100, 200, and 300 meters. More data from the USGS monitoring locations can be found in the USGS National Water Information System (U.S. Geological Survey, 2020): Amargosa River Shrub ET Station (USGS site identification number 355846116160401) https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/355846116160401
