17) Streamflow discharge and stream efficiency for the East Walker, West Walker, and Walker Rivers in Smith and Mason Valleys, Nevada, 1948-2020

Description

This tabular dataset is compiled monthly surface-water discharge data from four USGS gages in the Walker River Basin, Nevada, in acre-feet (USGS, 2021), and calculated stream efficiency using monthly streamflow discharge data and monthly surface-water diversion data, unitless, for water years 1948-2020. USGS gages include: West Walker River at Hoye Bridge near Wellington (10297500), West Walker River near Hudson (10300000), East Walker River above Strosnider Ditch near Mason (10293500), and Walker River near Wabuska (10301500). USGS streamflow discharge data is provided in this data release in acre-feet for convenience to the reader.
