Kuparuk River 1999 summer temperature and discharge calculated from stage height.

Stream temperature and discharge Each summer, water temperature and stream discharge are determined for the Kuparuk River. In many years, temperature and stream height were recorded manually each day. In recent years, data loggers have measured stream temperature and stream height at regular intervals. The Kuparuk River data is maintained by Dough Kane on the Water and Environmental Research Center at UAF (http://www.uaf.edu/water/projects/NorthSlope/upper_kuparuk/uk_river/uk_r...) Stream height is converted into stream discharge based on a rating curve calculated from manual discharge measurements throughout the season. The principal investigator in charge of the temperature and discharge measurements is Dr. Breck Bowden.

溪流温度与径流量数据集：每年夏季，研究人员均会针对库帕鲁克河（Kuparuk River）开展水温与溪流径流量的测定工作。此前多年，研究人员每日均以手动方式记录水温与河流水位数据；近年来，则通过数据记录仪（data logger）定期采集水温与河流水位信息。库帕鲁克河数据集由阿拉斯加大学费尔班克斯分校（UAF）水与环境研究中心的多伊·凯恩（Dough Kane）负责维护，相关数据集页面链接为：http://www.uaf.edu/water/projects/NorthSlope/upper_kuparuk/uk_river/uk_r... 研究人员基于全观测季手动径流量测量结果构建的水位流量关系曲线（rating curve），将河流水位数据转换为径流量数据。负责本次水温与径流量测定项目的首席研究员为布雷克·鲍登博士（Dr. Breck Bowden）。
