Data Release: Water Quality and Estimated Changes in the Plum Creek Watershed 2010-2020
This section of the data release supports the data used in models for the associated publication. The U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Wisconsin – Green Bay collected hydrologic and water-quality data to assess the effectiveness of agricultural conservation management practice (CMP) implementation at Mainstem Plum Creek (USGS site ID: 04084911) and West Plum Creek (USGS site ID: 04084927) in northeastern Wisconsin. Monitoring data from 2010–2020 at Mainstem Plum and 2013–2020 at West Plum were used to detect changes in hydrologic and water-quality responses during runoff events. Runoff events were defined by hydrographers and used to compute event loads and event flow-weighted mean concentrations of total phosphorus and total suspended solids – all of which are included in this data release. The data included in this release serve as model inputs for the associated model archive. Models in the associated archive were used to assess changes in water quality between two time periods (“initial” and “post-CMP implementation”) while controlling for environmental factors, such as weather and the conditions preceding events to elucidate water-quality changes more directly associated with CMP implementation.
