Summary

This data release contains waterborne gradient self-potential (SP), surface-water temperature, surface-water conductivity and specific conductance, and surface-water nitrate concentration data measured continuously in the upper part of the Delaware River along approximately 123 kilometers (km) between Hancock and Port Jervis, New York. All of the data were measured from a kayak between June 27 and July 2, 2021. Gradient self-potential data were measured along five survey segments that varied in length between 13.1 and 31.6 km. The first segment began at Hancock, N.Y. on the east branch of the Delaware River, progressed into the main stem, and ended about 13.1 river-km downstream in Lordville, N.Y. at U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamgage [...]

Purpose

The waterborne gradient self-potential (SP), surface-water temperature, conductivity and specific conductance, and nitrate-concentration data were collected to produce continuous profiles in the upper part of the Delaware River during a low flow condition that varied between a minimum of 995 cubic feet per second and a maximum of 5,320 cubic feet per second at the five U.S. Geological Survey streamflow gages on the survey reach. The surface-water temperature, conductivity, specific conductance, nitrate-concentration, and the streamflow data were collected to assist in the interpretation of the gradient self-potential data. The composite dataset is intended to provide a basis for making qualitative interpretations of variations of streaming-potential in the upper part of the Delaware River between Hancock and Port Jervis, N.Y.
