Suspended sediment concentration and loads for the North Fork Nooksack River below Cascade Creek near Glacier, Washington, June 26, 2015 to October 31, 2016

Suspended-sediment samples were collected by NIT and USGS at the USGS streamgage North Fork Nooksack River below Cascade Creek near Glacier (12205000) from June 2015 to October 2016 over a range of discharge and turbidity conditions. Regression equations were developed to estimate the suspended-sediment concentration (SSC) and the concentration of fine suspended-sediment (fSSC; <0.0625 mm) using turbidity as an explanatory variable. An hourly time series of SSC, fSSC, and the uncertainty of individual estimates (prediction intervals with 90 percent confidence) was computed and is provided. A daily time series of suspended-sediment load (SSL) and fine suspended-sediment load (fSSL) derived from hourly SSC and discharge data, was computed [...]
