Summary

The data release consists of two companion air and water temperature datasets collected as part of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Next Generation Water Observing System (NGWOS) program with data from both the Little Lehigh and White Clay Creek Watersheds in the Delaware River Basin. Data consists of 15-minute temperature data during the 7/2021 – 12/2022 study period for 21 air and 49 water locations (which include 6 continuous monitoring USGS streamgages) in the Little Lehigh Creek watershed and 8/2021 – 1/2023 for 28 air and 36 surface water locations (including 6 continuous monitoring USGS streamgages) in the White Clay Creek watershed. Datalogger installation locations for surface water locations were targeted for the middle [...]

Purpose

Understanding the influence of groundwater discharge from hillslope and underlying aquifers is a key aspect to a better understanding of the driving influence of a streams thermal regime. This driving aspect of stream temperature has been an important focus of U.S. Geological Survey Next Generation Water Observing Systems Program (NGWOS) since roughly 2019. This research applies a paired air and water temperature measurement approach developed as part of NGWOS by Terry et al. 2022 (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9R3TYOZ). This data, collected within the Little Lehigh and White Clay Creek Watersheds, will contribute to a larger multi- watershed and basin analysis of this approach for characterizing groundwater contributions.
