Lost Ledge Climate Station (MCKLOL01C)

This dataset contains data from a climate station in the Lost Ledge Creek watershed. The site, previously operated under the Kootenay Watershed Science program, is now part of Living Lakes Canada's Columbia Basin Water Monitoring Framework program (CBWMF). The CBWMF is a coordinated monitoring network that tracks how climate change and other impacts are affecting water supply for communities and ecosystems across the Canadian Columbia Basin region. This data is collected to enhance understanding and prediction of how small- and medium-sized watersheds respond to a changing climate, particularly during periods of extreme high and low precipitation.
