Data for the Estimation of Regional Flow-Duration Curves for Indiana (ver. 3.0, December 2021)
Digital datasets were used to develop basin characteristics values that are used in multiple regression equations and tested for the use in predicting flow-duration curves (FDCs) in ungaged areas of Indiana. Several basin characteristics are easily derived from StreamStats basin delineations, such as basin area (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/). Other basin characteristics require ancillary datasets as input. The data provided through this data release are those data that have been collected, tested, and ultimately selected as a basis for FDC development. These include PRISM 3-Month Average Precipitation, Thickness and Coarseness of Quaternary Sediments, and Soil Available Water Capacity.
There are 6 continuous parameter grids (CPGs; for a definition, see https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/412/section3.html) included in the Indiana portion of this data release: PRISM December to February Average Precipitation (prdecfeb00_cpg), PRISM September to November Average Precipitation (prsepnov00_cpg), index of permeability of Quaternary surficial sediments (qss_permb_cpg), index of permeability of Quaternary surficial sediments multiplied by their thickness (permbxthick_cpg), STATSGO Permeability (statsperm_cpg), and Available Water Capacity (watcapinil_cpg).
