These model archive summaries document surrogate regression models developed to estimate suspended-sediment concentration (SSC) at three USGS streamgages in New York: Mohawk River above State Highway 30A at Fonda, USGS site number 01349527; Schoharie Creek at Burtonsville, USGS site number 01351500; and Mohawk River at Cohoes, USGS site number 01357500. Ordinary least squares regression equations were developed between suspended-sediment concentration and turbidity using the U.S. Geological Survey Surrogate Analysis and Index Developer (SAID) Tool (Domanski and others, 2015) and methods described in Rasmussen and others (2009). Model summaries were developed following guidance in USGS Office of Surface Water Technical Memorandum (TM) 2016.07, Office of Water Quality TM 2016.10.
