This data release contains information to support water quality modeling in the Delaware River Basin (DRB). These data support both process-based and machine learning approaches to water quality modeling, including the prediction of stream temperature. Reservoirs in the DRB serve an important role as a source of drinking water, but also affect downstream water quality. Therefore, this data release includes data that characterize both rivers and a subset of reservoirs in the basin. This release provides an update to many of the files provided in a previous data release (Oliver et al., 2021). The data are stored in 3 child folders: 1) spatial information, 2) observations, and 3) model driver data. 1) Spatial Information...

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...
