Summary

Site-specific parameters for a non-linear baseflow separation model determined by automated calibration to maximize baseflow. The file "bf_param_usgs.csv" has parameter values for 13,208 sites where USGS operated a streamflow gage and calculated daily streamflow for at least 300 days from water year 1981 to 2020. The file "bf_param_wa_ecy.csv" has parameter values for 41 sites where the Washington Department of Ecology operated a streamflow gage from water year 1991 to 2019. The parameters may need to be re-calibrated at a site for some applications.
