Abstract:

These data document daily temperature measurements at four locations in each of five mountain canyons in the western Great Basin (Mineral County, Nevada, and Alpine and Mono Counties, California) and five mountain canyons in the central Great Basin (Lander, Nye, and Eureka Counties, Nevada) for a total of 40 locations. Sampling locations spanned the elevational gradients of the canyons and were within the 100-meter points at which we sampled breeding birds. Data were collected through deployment of data loggers (HOBO Pendant MX Temperature/Light Data Logger) at each of the 40 locations. Data were collected during late May through early August of 2018 and 2019. Data include daily maximum, minimum, and mean temperatures, location of logger, and date of measurement.
