RESTORE/fdclmrpplo, Source code for estimation of L-moments and percent no-flow conditions for decadal flow-duration curves and estimation at level-12 hydrologic unit codes along with other statistical computations
April 4, 2020
The RESTORE/fdclmrpplo repository contains R language source code used for estimation of the L-moments and percent no-flow conditions (no-flow fractions) for decadal flow-duration curves and estimation at streamgages and level-12 hydrologic unit codes using generalized additive models and censored generalized additive models. The source code is designed to streamline the workflow for the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (RESTORE project) and document computations for USGS data releases identified herein. The source code also provides other statistical computations germane to the goals of the project.

Estimated quantiles of decadal flow-duration curves using selected probability distributions fit to no-flow fractions and L-moments predicted for streamgages and for pour points of level-12 hydrologic unit codes in the southeastern United States, 1950-201
Using previously published (Robinson and others, 2019) no-flow fractions and L-moments of nonzero streamflow from decadal streamflow flow-duration analysis (daily mean streamflow), probability distributions were fit to provide 27 estimated quantiles of decadal flow-duration curves, and hence the probability distributions are a form of parametric modeling that ensures monotonicity of the quantiles
Estimated daily mean streamflows for HUC12 pour points in the southeastern United States, 1950-2009
This data release contains estimated daily streamflow values for 9,203 12-digit hydrologic unit codes (HUC12s) in the southeastern United States for the period 1950-2009. The files are provided in text format, which can be used in R and in other programs. The 'Site Info' folder contains 18 files with streamgage information and the 'Daily Values' folder contains 18 files with predicted daily strea
Generalized additive model estimation of no-flow fractions and L-moments to support flow-duration curve quantile estimation using selected probability distributions for bay and estuary restoration in the Gulf States
Censored and uncensored generalized additive models (GAMs) were developed using streamflow data from 941 U.S. Geological Survey streamflow-gaging stations (streamgages) to predict decadal statistics of daily streamflow for streams draining to the Gulf of Mexico. The modeled decadal statistics comprise no-flow fractions and L-moments of logarithms of nonzero streamflow for six decades (1950–2009).
