Coding and Statistical Data Capabilities @ MD-DE-DC
Coding and Statistical Data Capabilities at the MD-DE-DC Water Science Center
Calculating Water Science
This site is dedicated to Coding and Statistical Data that is produced and analyzed by scientists at the MD-DE-DC WSC. We use many tools at the USGS including software exclusively developed for, sometimes written by the USGS.
Estimation of Base Flow by Optimal Hydrograph Separation
OHS uses a two-parameter recursive digital filter that applies specific conductance mass-balance constraints to estimate the base flow contribution to total streamflow at stream gages where specific variables are measured.
Wastewater Nutrient Data Preps, Estimates using PSLoadEsT
The Point-Source Load Estimation Tool (PSLoadEsT) provides a user-friendly interface for generating reproducible load calculations for point source dischargers while managing common data challenges. This report serves as a detailed user's guide.
Bank‐derived material tops fluvial sediment in suburban watershed
Excess fine sediment is a leading cause of ecological degradation within the Chesapeake Bay watershed. To effectively target sediment mitigation measures, it is necessary to identify and quantify the delivery of sediment sources to local waterbodies.

11 May 2020 Introduction to the dataRetrieval package
The dataRetrieval package was created to simplify the process of loading hydrologic data into the R environment. It is designed to retrieve the major data types of U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) hydrologic data that are available on the Web, as well as data from the Water Quality Portal (WQP), which currently houses water quality data from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and USGS. Direct USGS data is obtained from a service called the National Water Information System (NWIS).
