Sampling Coverage

Figures describing hydrographs and sampling coverage during 1996-2000 for each station can be viewed by clicking on the appropriate station name in the following list. The time period for sampling is defined by the begin date for the period of active sampling for the specific station (Table 1). A second plot on each figure depicts the sampling coverage as a function of the distribution of streamflow, plotted as rank in percent; for context with historic NASQAN water-quality data (where data are available), the distribution of streamflow during the period of historic NASQAN sampling is also presented on the same plot.
