    • Streamflow characteristics and trends at continuous-record and partial-record streamflow-gaging stations in New Jersey, water years 1903-2017

    Metadata Updated: January 21, 2026

    This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains a geodatabase, shapefiles, and datasets that describe streamflow characteristics and trends in New Jersey surface water during water years 1903-2017. High-flow, low-flow, and durations statistics and trend results at 97 continuous-record gages are presented. Low-flow statistics at 719 partial-record gages with sufficient data for regression are also presented, as well as results of trend tests of the regression residuals. Comparisons of the 2017 flow statistics to the 2001 flow statistics reported by Watson and others (2005) are included. The data support the following publication: McHugh, A.R., Suro, T.P., Sullivan, S.L., and Williams, B.M., 2024, Streamflow characteristics and trends in New Jersey, water years 1903-2017: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2024-5099, https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20245099.
