Planning for the Future of Aquatic Flows: A Comprehensive Database of River Water Quality Literature in the United States from 1997-2024

This dataset is a "catalog of literature" produced in support of a review paper titled: "What Goes with the Flow: A Review of Linkages among Climate Change, Low-Flows, Water Quality, and Instream Flow Management Response across the United States". The dataset consists of six tabular sheets, each of them containing information critical to the review paper: a summary of search terms used to collect literature pertinent to this review; terminology encountered that were used to define "low-flows"; detailed summaries of all literature that were collected using these search terms and definitions; quoted examples of ecological impacts of low-flows on river water quality; quoted examples of the management implications for low-flows and river water quality.
