Ikard, S.J., Carr, S.M., Terry, N.C., Briggs, M.A., and Payne, J.D., 2021, Waterborne Gradient Self-potential, Temperature, and Conductivity Logging of the Upper part of the Delaware River between Hancock and Port Jervis, New York, June–July 2021: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9H652Z8.

The waterborne gradient self-potential (SP), surface-water temperature, conductivity and specific conductance, and nitrate-concentration data were collected to produce continuous profiles in the upper part of the Delaware River during a low flow condition that varied between a minimum of 995 cubic feet per second and a maximum of 5,320 cubic feet per second at the five U.S. Geological Survey streamflow gages on the survey reach. The surface-water temperature, conductivity, specific conductance, nitrate-concentration, and the streamflow data were collected to assist in the interpretation of the gradient self-potential data. The composite dataset is intended to provide a basis for making qualitative interpretations of variations of streaming-potential in the upper part of the Delaware River between Hancock and Port Jervis, N.Y.
