Predicted flow-duration curves for selected streamgages in the conterminous United States

Description

This dataset contains predicted flow-duration curves (FDCs) for 1,378 streamgages in 19 study regions in the conterminous U.S. from mostly undisturbed watersheds using regression models constructed with four or five binary methodological choices (thus 16 or 32 methodological combinations). The predicted FDCs are presented as 27 quantiles ranging from 0.02 to 99.98 percent nonexceedance probabilities. These data are also contained within the CSV files in child item 4, "Selected regression models for predicting FDC quantiles for selected streamgages in the conterminous United States", but are separated out here to provide more convenient access in a single Excel file (predictedFDCs.xlsx). These data support a concurrent publication (Over and others, 2018).
