StreamStats utilizes several USGS web services, many of which are managed by the StreamStats Team. A list of these web services can be found below.

National Streamflow Statistics (NSS) Application

The National Streamflow Statistics (NSS) Application is an online computer application that provides a simple method for applying regional flood-peak streamflow estimates and low flow frequency/duration streamflow estimates.

National Streamflow Statistics (NSS) Application - Formerly NSS Program

The USGS develops regression equations for estimating streamflow statistics for every state, Puerto Rico, and a number of metropolitan areas in the U.S. These equations have been compiled into the National Streamflow Statistics (NSS) Application for design, planning, management, and regulatory purposes. These estimates are often needed at ungaged sites where no observed flow data are available.
