1968 Surface Water Survey of Guam, Cited in Best and Davidson 1981 (ML-75)
This data package was created 2025-12-03 08:11:25 by NPSTORET and includes selected project, location, and result data. Data are from a 1968 water survey of Guam prepared for Guam's Public Utility Agency as cited in the University of Guam's Marine Laboratory 1981 Technical Report #75 "Inventory and Atlas of Inland Aquatic Ecosystems of the Marianas Archipelago" by Bruce R. Best and Caroline E. Davidson.
Data contained in WAPA_NPSTORET_BE.ACCDB (NPSTORET back-end file) were filtered to include:
Organization:
- WAPA: War in the Pacific National Historical Park
Project:
- WAPA0008: 1968 Surface Water Survey of Guam, Cited in Best and Davidson 1981 (ML-75)
Station:
- Include Trip QC And All Station Visit Results
Value Status:
- Accepted or Certified (exported as Final) or Final
The data package is organized into five data tables:
- Projects.csv - describes the purpose and background of the monitoring efforts
- Locations.csv - documents the attributes of the monitoring locations/stations
- Results.csv - contains the field measurements, observations, and/or lab analyses for each sample/event/data grouping
- HUC.csv - enumerates the domain of allowed values for 8-digit and 12-digit hydrologic unit codes utilized by the Locations data table
- Characteristics.csv - enumerates the domain of characteristics available in NPSTORET to identify what was sampled, measured or observed in Results
Period of record for filtered data is 1968-01-30 to 1968-04-04. This data package is a snapshot in time of one National Park Service project. The most current data for this project, which may be more or less extensive than that in this data package, can be found on the Water Quality Portal at:
