Chesapeake Bay Program long-term tidal monitoring stations
Description
Chesapeake Bay Program long-term tidal monitoring stations
Usage
stationMasterList
Format
A data frame with 145 rows and 19 variables:
- station
Water quality station code
- state
State location
- locationType
As identified in the state trend reports, whether this station is in the mainstem or tributary monitoring
- waterbody
Location as identified in the CBP CIMS database
- latitude
From the CBP CIMS database, and verified in a GIS map
- longitude
From the CBP CIMS database, and verified in a GIS map
- cbSeg92
Match to CB 92 Segmentation scheme (for 303d list)
- usgsGageName
Manual match to a USGS fall-line monitoring station (See usgsGages$siteName)
- usgsGageID
USGS station code (See usgsGages$siteNumber)
- usgsGageMatch
Identifies how the USGS-to-TribStation match was made. Direct: If the station falls within a tributary with a USGS station, or in the mainstem. Indirect: If the station is in a small sub-tributary of one of the major tributaries. The USGS station may not be that representative, but it is better than matching to the Susquehanna. SusDefault: If there was no clear match, the tidal station was matched to the Susquehanna River.

- hydroTerm
"flow" or "salinity" to indicate whether to model flow or salinity effects (if missing, "flow" assumed)
- flwAvgWin
list of averaging windows if flow is selected in hydroTerm (options are: 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210)
- flwParms
list of parameters to model with flow (regardless of hydroTerm value), each parameter separated by a space
- salParms
list of parameters to model with salinity (regardless of hydroTerm value), each parameter separated by a space
- notes
Optional note to track updates
