Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. Correlation of flows at pairs of streamgages were evaluated using a Spearman’s rho correlation coefficient to better identify gages that can be used as index gages to estimate daily flow at ungaged stream sites in West Virginia. Correlation maps were developed for each candidate index streamgage using ordinary kriging, and have been compiled as grids. Sets of grids were developed for correlation of daily flows of streamgages on unregulated streams in [...]

Purpose

The purpose of these data are to provide the Spearman's rho correlation coefficients for each streamgage, to document station centroids used to develop correlation maps of index streamgages to ungaged streams, and to document the resulting correlation-map grids.
