Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from data supplied by the Bureau of Meteorology. The source dataset is identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

Streamflow timeseries data and gauge locations for selected gauges in the Hunter subregion. This dataset was created to establish a unified streamflow dataset, based on the 24 July 2014 dataset provided by the BoM.

Purpose

The data was used for preparing contextual statement, calibrating and validating surface water modelling, and establishing surface hydrological response variables.

Dataset History

The data was created using the original 24 July 2014 streamflow data. The process steps are as follows

  1. To move one day backward to match precipitation data since the original 9:00am data is for the period of the current 10:00 am to next 9:00 am

  2. To identify gauge stuck issue

  3. To identify data linear interpolation issue

  4. To regard the issue data as missing data

  5. To generate streamflow data with the unified quality codes: (1: Good; 2: Fair; 3: Poor; 4: Unverified; 5: Non-conforming; 6: Missing)

  6. To separate daily streamflow into baseflow and quick flow using the standard filtering method (Lyne and Hollick (1979)).

The data was created in MATLAB using scripts and functions.
