Summary

The dataset contains daily values of hydrologic and physical parameters. These daily values were calculated from continuous (15-minute) data collected from continuous water quality monitors (CWQMs) installed at five gaged sites within the Little Blue River watershed in Independence, Missouri. The data were used as input to regression models to predict Escherichia coli (E. coli) loads. Any data estimation was performed according to procedures described in the WEFTEC 2017 conference proceedings paper "Evaluation of Modeled Bacteria Loads Along an Impaired Stream Reach Receiving Discharge from a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System in Independence, Mo." Periods of missing daily values were due to equipment malfunction, fouling, or poor [...]
