StreamStats for Delaware was developed in cooperation with the Delaware Geological Survey and the Delaware Department of Transportation.
The report below documents the regression equations available in StreamStats for Delaware, the methods used to develop the equations and to measure the basin characteristics used in the equations, references to GIS data layers used in the analysis, and the errors associated with the estimates obtained from the equations. Users should familiarize themselves with this report before using StreamStats to obtain estimates of streamflow statistics for ungaged sites.

Peak-flow and low-flow magnitude estimates at defined frequencies and durations for nontidal streams in Delaware
Reliable estimates of the magnitude of peak flows in streams are required for the economical and safe design of transportation and water conveyance structures. In addition, reliable estimates of the magnitude of low flows at defined frequencies and durations are needed for meeting regulatory requirements, quantifying base flows in streams and rivers, and evaluating time of travel and dilution of tAuthorsJohn C.
