Summary

This Data Release contains stream temperature data for 28 sites within the headwaters of the Potomac River basin. Data were collected between June 1, 2021-February 5, 2023 at 30-minute increments. We collected data using Onset ProV2 gages in perforated PVC cases mounted to stream substrates with rebar. This work was funded by the USGS Priority Ecosystem Science program for the Chesapeake Bay.
