Hammond, J.C., 2021, Magnitude and Frequency of Peak Flows and Low Flows on Nontidal Streams in Delaware: peak and low flow estimates and basin characteristics: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9B7CUVO.

Summary

This dataset contains four tables: (1) site, regression and weighted peak flow estimates (peak_flow_estimates.csv) (2) site, regression and weighted low flow estimates (low_flow_estimates.csv) (3) basin characteristics for peak flow sites (peak_basin_stats.csv) (4) basin characteristics for low flow sites (low_basin_stats.csv). These tables support the USGS report "Magnitude and Frequency of Peak Flows and Low Flows on Nontidal Streams in Delaware."

Purpose

These data were compiled to provide the user with the ability to reproduce the regression analyses in the report "Magnitude and Frequency of Peak Flows and Low Flows on Nontidal Streams in Delaware." The tables provide site, regression and weighted peak and low flow estimates for nontidal sites in and near Delaware. Additionally, the tables include basin characteristics for each peak and low flow site for which flow estimates are provided.
