Abstract:

This data publication contains daily average streamflow from October 1992 through September 2001 for 11 stream gauging stations located on the Tenderfoot Creek Experimental Forest (TCEF) which is located in the Little Belt Mountains of Central Montana, USA. Streamflow was measured at two locations on Tenderfoot Creek (Upper and Lower) as well as seven subwatersheds. Gauging stations on the subwatersheds were Sun, Upper Sun, Spring Park, Bubbling, Stringer, Upper Stringer, Pack, Passionate, and Lonesome Creeks. Two of these subwatersheds (Sun and Spring Park) had experimental harvesting in 1999 and 2000. Half of those cutting units were burned under prescription between 2001 and 2003. Two adjacent subwatersheds (Bubbling and Stringer) serve as controls for the silvicultural treatments (Hood et. al. 2012, McCaughey et. al. 2006).
