Cover Story: This paper describes using a unique spatio-temporally resolved precipitation and temperature dataset to assess the spatio-temporal dynamics of water resources over almost seven decades across the Sierra Nevada mountain range. This isolated alpine environment's altitude and geographical location make it a good detector of climate change. The data were generated by applying geostatistical co-kriging to significant instrumental precipitation and temperature datasets. The correlation between precipitation and altitude was not particularly high, and the statistical analysis yielded some surprising results in mean annual precipitation maps and yearly precipitation time series. These results confirm the importance of orographic precipitation in the Sierra Nevada mountain range and show a decrease in mean annual precipitation of 33 mm per decade. View this paper
