Summary

Groundwater and estuary water levels near Mill Creek, and the Herring River in Wellfleet Massachusetts were measured from June 2017 to June 14, 2018. Water-level data have been filtered to remove the effects of the daily tides. The mean daily value of the tidally filtered 15 minute water-level data is presented. The data also include a composite data set of daily precipitation values, as well as data on the growing degrees days (50 degrees Fahrenheit), from two weather stations on Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

Purpose

Groundwater and estuary water-level data were used in regression models to identify factors in determining groundwater altitude in the study area. Data were collected as baseline information prior to the restoration of tidal flow to the Herring River Marshes.
