The geographic information systems (GIS) database complementing the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed (WGEW) special section papers in this issue of Water Resources Research is described. Spatial data layers discussed here will be especially useful to modelers interested in simulating the spatial and temporal characteristics of rainfall, runoff, erosion, and sedimentation processes on the WGEW. All data are available as either images or individual GIS data layers (vector or raster format) via the U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Southwest Watershed Research Center at http://www.tucson.ars.ag.gov/dap/ . Standard metadata are provided with attending projection information and restrictions on use.
