Contiguous US and Global streamflow gages measuring zero flow

We report the site number and locations of 5798 streamflow gages displaying zero flow for at least one day in their daily records. 4891 of these gages are from the GRDC network, and 906 are USGS gages in the contiguous US. Additionally, provisional data for two USGS gages 1) Rio Puerco near Bernardo, NM (USGS site: 08353000) and 2) Agua Fria River Near Mayer, AZ (USGS site: 09512500) are provided to illustrate zero flow record behaviors.

Magnitude and Frequency of Peak Flows and Low Flows on Nontidal Streams in Delaware: peak and low flow estimates and basin characteristics

This dataset contains four tables: (1) site, regression and weighted peak flow estimates (peak_flow_estimates.csv) (2) site, regression and weighted low flow estimates (low_flow_estimates.csv) (3) basin characteristics for peak flow sites (peak_basin_stats.csv) (4) basin characteristics for low flow sites (low_basin_stats.csv). These tables support the USGS report "Magnitude and Frequency of Peak Flows and Low Flows on Nontidal Streams in Delaware."

Groundwater level trends for 110 U.S. Geological Survey observation wells in the Delaware River Basin

This data release contains groundwater level trend results from 110 U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) observation wells in and near the Delaware River Basin. Mean annual groundwater level elevations from water years 2000-2020 were computed from mean daily recorded groundwater levels and discretely measured groundwater levels. Both time series were analyzed using the Mann-Kendall test for monotonic trend and the Thiel-Sen slope. Wells are completed in both confined and unconfined aquifers. Data include well identification number, latitude, longitude, aquifer type, trend slopes and p-values for both mean annual time series at 110 wells.

Daily time series of surface water input from rainfall, rain on snow, and snowmelt for the Conterminous United States from 1990 to 2023, as well as annual series of input seasonality, precipitation seasonality, and average rainfall, rain on snow, and snowmelt rates

This data release contains daily gridded data reflecting surface water input from rainfall, rain on snow (mixed), and snowmelt for the conterminous United States for water years 1990 to 2023 (1990/10/01 to 2023/09/30). This release also contains annual estimates of gridded input seasonality (an index reflecting whether surface water input occurs within a concentrated period or is equally distributed throughout the year), precipitation seasonality, average snowmelt, rainfall and rain on snow rates, and finally, annual totals of each input type. Average snowmelt, rainfall and rain on snow rates were computed using days where values were greater than zero. Daily data were generated using precipitation input from the...
