Lurin Basin, Andean Measurement Campaign and Dataset (LAMA)

LAMA is part of the BMBF funded interdisciplinary project TRUST ("Trinkwasserversorgung in prosperierenden Wassermangelregionen nachhaltig, gerecht und ökologisch verträglich"). Hydrological data has been collected in the Lurin river basin for a time span over three years in a range of altitudes from 200 m up to 4500 m above mean sea level.

LAMA includes high resolution continuous measurements of precipitation (5 min resolution), soil humidity and temperature (10 min), discharge (15min resolution) and climate variables (10 min resolution). Discharge was measured at two piezometric stations, precipitation at five stations, soil humidity at three stations and climate variables at one station. Details regarding measurement equipment and calibration can be found in the readme files of the archives.
