NotesThis website gives water temperature data coupled with climate scenarios for western U.S. streams. Hundreds of biologists and hydrologists contributed to the temperature database. The database contains over 200,000,000 hourly stream temperature readings at more than 20,000 stream sites. The data were used to develop 36 historical and future climate scenarios at 1-kilometer resolution for over 1,000,000 stream kilometers. The website includes an interactive stream temperature viewer.
