Total Nitrogen models are still in development and are not yet available. Anticipated availability is early April 2024. Information on this page will be edited as needed. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the York County Planning Commission and York County Conservation District, has collected discrete stream samples for analysis of suspended-sediment, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus concentrations at six real-time streamflow and water-quality monitoring (turbidity and nitrate) stations located in York County, Pennsylvania. Data were collected from 2019-2023 at these stations for the application of predicting suspended-sediment, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus concentrations using...

The High Resolution National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDPlus HR) is an integrated set of geospatial data layers, including the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD), National Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), and 3D Elevation Program Digital Elevation Model (3DEP DEM). The NHDPlus HR combines the NHD, 3DEP DEMs, and WBD to a data suite that includes the NHD stream network with linear referencing functionality, the WBD hydrologic units, elevation-derived catchment areas for each stream segment, "value added attributes" (VAAs), and other features that enhance hydrologic data analysis and routing.

This data release contains phytoplankton classification and enumeration results from two moving boat surveys conducted on July 15 - 18, 2019 and August 19 - 22, 2019. These data were collected from the Caloosahatchee River and estuary, the St. Lucie River and estuary, and Lake Okeechobee with funding provided by the USGS Priority Ecosystems Greater Everglades Program.

Water-quality point measurements were collected at various depths throughout a beaver pond along Fanno Creek in the Tualatin River Basin, Oregon. Parameters collected include water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and sometimes pH. All data were collected over a short period of time (< 4 hours) during 4 hot days in order to characterize the spatial (both horizontal and vertical) variability of these parameters during periods that could potentially be stressful to aquatic life.

This data release contains eight datasets and metadata related to streamwater constituent load estimation and E. coli bacteria concentration predictions at 15 watersheds in DeKalb County, Georgia for 2012 to 2016 (the water-quality model calibration data goes through 9/22/2017 and the water-quality assurance samples goes through 11/7/2017). Loads were estimated for 15 constituents: biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, total suspended solids, suspended sediment concentration, total nitrogen, total nitrate plus nitrite, total phosphorus, dissolved phosphorus, total organic carbon, total calcium, total magnesium, total copper, total lead, total zinc, and total dissolved solids. The data release includes...
This data release contains 15 datasets and associated metadata of watershed characteristics and data related to stream water quality and constituent load estimation for 15 study watersheds in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Dataset periods vary but range within 2000 to 2021. The 15 datasets are organized as individual child items. The data release includes three Geographic Information System shapefiles: (1) 01: Watersheds shapefile for the 15 study watersheds in Gwinnett County, Georgia; (2) 02: Stormwater drainage areas shapefile for the 15 study watersheds in Gwinnett County, Georgia, August 2021; and (3) 03: 200-foot stream buffer shapefiles for 15 watersheds in Gwinnett County, Georgia. The data release includes four...
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Water Mission Area (WMA) is working to address a need to understand where the Nation is experiencing water shortages or surpluses relative to the demand for water need by delivering routine assessments of water supply and demand. It is also improving understanding of the natural and human factors affecting the balance between supply and demand. A key part of these national assessments is identifying long-term trends in water availability, including groundwater and surface water quantity, quality, and use. To describe the long-term trends in the surface water quality component of water availability, data from the USGS and other Federal, State, and local agencies were accessed primarily...
Note: this data release has been depecrated. Find the updated version here: https://doi.org/10.5066/P9FJCM8N. The Skykomish and Snoqualmie River basins in western Washington provide spawning, rearing, and migration habitat for several salmonid species, including Endangered Species Act-listed Chinook salmon, steelhead trout, and bull trout. The production, abundance, distribution, and the health of fish and other aquatic life is strongly influenced by water temperature, which affects their physiology and behavior. The Washington State Department of Ecology establishes water temperature criteria and Total Maximum Daily Load standards for designated aquatic life uses, varying between 12 and 17.5 degrees Celsius, depending...
Mercury (Hg) is a well-known toxic element and environmental contaminant. The central valley of California has long been identified as a hotspot for Hg contamination due to the historic mining of Hg in the California coast range, and its use in the mining of gold in the Sierra Nevada, with these mountainous regions bordering the east and the west of the valley, respectively. While the whole central valley is world renowned as a major agricultural area, the northern portion, known as the Sacramento valley region, is dominated by commercial rice production. Since rice is grown in flooded fields, and since wetland soils are known to be particularly effective habitats for converting inorganic mercury into the more toxic...

The Bushy Park Reservoir is a relatively shallow impoundment in a semi-tropical climate and is the principal water supply for the 400,000 people of the City of Charleston and the surrounding areas including the industries in the Bushy Park Industrial Complex. Although there is an adequate supply of freshwater in the reservoir, there are taste-and-odor water-quality concerns. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Charleston Water System, monitored the hydrology and water-quality conditions in the Bushy Park Reservoir immediately before, during, and after a unique shutdown period when the average daily 800-cubic-feet-per-second withdrawals by South Carolina Electric and Gas (SCE+G) Williams Station...
