Data associated with journal article "Combining modeled and observed wet deposition and precipitation data for improved critical loads analyses"

Data sets used in the analysis presented in the manuscript “A Measurement-Model Fusion Approach for Improved Wet Deposition Maps and Trends”. The datasets used for the analysis presented in this manuscript were provided by:
1. the National Atmospheric Deposition Program National Trends Network (NADP Program Office, Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, 465 Henry Mall, Madison, WI 53706.
http://nadp.slh.wisc.edu/data/NTN/ntnAllsites.aspx
)
2. the Parameter-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model (PRISM) Climate Group (PRISM Climate Group, Oregon State University, http://prism.oregonstate.edu, created 10 Sept 2015)
3. the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model development team within the EPA's Office of Research and Development

Each file is in comma-separated value (csv) format. Column names and definitions for each file are provided in the accompanying data dictionary file.

The three data files are:
1. NADP-NTN_and_CMAQv5.0.2_annual_total_wet_depostion_2002-2012.csv: Matched model and observational wet deposition data for 2002 -2012 over the continental US
2. CMAQv5.0.2_surface_layer_annual_total_wet_depostion_2002-2012.csv: Gridded surface layer model wet deposition data for 2002-2012 over the continental US
3. north.amer.map.CMAQ.km.csv: North America map lines in Lambert conformal projected coordinates based on projection used in CMAQ simulations.

This dataset is associated with the following publication:
