Dust mass and horizontal aeolian sediment flux data from a sampler network on the Colorado Plateau, USA
Description
These data were compiled to assess time series data of aeolian sediment collections across varying climates, vegetation cover, and land uses on the Colorado Plateau. The objectives of our study were to interpret aeolian erosion and deposition processes and measure horizontal sediment flux over the span of two decades amid rapidly changing climate conditions and multiple land use changes within the study area. These data represent the seasonally accumulated horizontal sediment flux from different landscapes within the Colorado Plateau measured using Big Springs Number Eight (BSNE) dust samplers. These data were collected in Grand, San Juan, and Wayne County, Utah and Mesa Country, Colorado with sample collections ranging from 1998 to [...]
