Abstract

The U.S. Geological Survey Central Plains Water Science Center, serving the states of Kansas and Nebraska, has collected and interpreted hydrologic information for more than a century. Data collected include streamflow and gage height, reservoir content, water quality and water quantity, suspended sediment, and groundwater levels. Interpretative hydrologic studies are completed on national, regional, statewide, and local levels and cooperatively funded through partnerships with these agencies. The U.S. Geological Survey provides impartial scientific information to describe and understand the health of our ecosystems and environment; minimize loss of life and property from natural disasters; manage water, biological, energy, and mineral resources; and enhance and protect our quality of life. These collected data are in the National Water Information System (Kansas: https://dashboard.waterdata.usgs.gov/app/nwd/en/ and Nebraska: https://dashboard.waterdata.usgs.gov/app/nwd/en/), and all results are documented in reports that also are online (Kansas: https://www.usgs.gov/centers/kswsc and Nebraska: https://www.usgs.gov/centers/nebraska-water-science-center/publications).
