Mayo, J.P., 2017, Supplemental stream-stage, discharge, and Escherichia coli datasets used in the assessment of water quality at Tumacácori National Historical Park and the Upper Santa Cruz River, 2009–2017: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/F73776ZN.

Tumacácori National Historical Park (TUMA) was established in 1908 to protect, preserve, and communicate the history of the old Spanish and O’odham mission church. In 2002, Congress expanded the Park’s purpose and mission, increasing the Park’s area to include more than 1 mile of the Santa Cruz River and its associated riparian area. As part of the USGS–NPS Water-Quality Partnership, a three year investigation was conducted to provide TUMA with a better understanding of the spatial and temporal variability of Escherichia coli (E. coli) concentrations and sources within and upstream of the Park. The supplemental data release includes stream-stage datasets collected by the USGS using pressure transducers and effluent-discharge and E. coli concentration data collected by the U.S. International Boundary and Water Commission.
