Terence Messinger
Terry Messinger is a physical scientist at the Virginia and West Virginia Water Science Center.
Terry has spent his career at the U.S. Geological Survey in Charleston, West Virginia, beginning in 1991. His recent work is related to streamflow quantity, timing, and distribution. He has previously worked in channel geomorphology, water quality, and fish and invertebrate community ecology.
Science and Products
Improving Time of Concentration Estimates for Small Rural Watersheds in the Appalachian Plateaus Physiographic Province, West Virginia
Drainage basins of selected streamgages in West Virginia through 2020
Ratings and estimated provisional streamflow for streamgages in Virginia, water years 1991 through 2013
Drought-vulnerability assessment of public water systems in West Virginia
Occurrence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and inorganic analytes in groundwater and surface water used as sources for public water supply in West Virginia
Rating stability, and frequency and magnitude of shifts, for streamgages in Virginia through water year 2013
Annual and average estimates of water-budget components based on hydrograph separation and PRISM precipitation for gaged basins in the Appalachian Plateaus Region, 1900-2011
Water quality of groundwater and stream base flow in the Marcellus Shale Gas Field of the Monongahela River Basin, West Virginia, 2011-12
Correlations of daily flows at streamgages in and near West Virginia, 1930-2011, and streamflow characteristics relevant to the use of index streamgages
Estimation of traveltime and longitudinal dispersion in streams in West Virginia
Regional Curves for Bankfull Channel Characteristics in the Appalachian Plateaus, West Virginia
Development and analysis of regional curves for streams in the non-urban valley and ridge physiographic province, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia
Regional Relations in Bankfull Channel Characteristics determined from flow measurements at selected stream-gaging stations in West Virginia, 1911-2002
Comparison of storm response of streams in small, unmined and valley-filled watersheds, 1999-2001, Ballard fork, West Virginia
Relations between precipitation and daily and monthly mean flows in gaged, unmined and valley-filled watersheds, Ballard Fork, West Virginia, 1999-2001
Interactive Map: West Virginia Public Water System Drought Risk
This application is intended to help emergency, environmental, and public health managers at the federal, state, and local levels in West Virginia evaluate, plan for, and respond to potential drought conditions in at-risk communities. It uses estimated public water supply withdrawal rates to symbolize modeled drought conditions once every hour using National Water Model streamflow estimates.
