High resolution river stage and groundwater level data from Wallingford, Oxfordshire, UK

Dataset title High resolution river stage and groundwater level data from Wallingford, Oxfordshire, UK
Dataset creators James Sorensen, British Geological Survey
Dataset theme Geoscientific Information
Dataset abstract

The borehole is located at the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (UKCEH), screened between 2 and 4.5 m in the Thames gravels, and drilled to a total depth of 4.8m. It is located on an actively managed grass verge with popular and sycamore trees within 10 m. The stilling well is positioned 420 m west of the borehole in the River Thames. Both stage and groundwater level were monitored at 1-minutre frequency to investigate hydrological fractal scaling of high frequency data between 2012 and 2016. An automatic weather station is present between the borehole and stilling well and the data are available separately from UKCEH (stetur@ceh.ac.uk).
