National Aquatic Resource Survey Rivers and Streams Data
Data are from 1,000 river and stream sites across the conterminous US where consistent biological, chemical, physical and watershed data were gathered. The sites were selected using a probability survey design so that the results provide inferences to all perennial flowing waters in the lower 48 states.
This dataset is associated with the following publication:
Omernik, J., S. Paulsen , M. Weber , and G. Griffith. Regional patterns of total nitrogen concentrations in the National Rivers and Streams Assessment. JOURNAL OF SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION. Soil and Water Conservation Society, 71(3): 167-181, (2016).
