Conductivity, temperature, and specific conductance data for Northwest Branch Anacostia River near Colesville, MD, USA

This resource includes conductivity, temperature, and specific conductance data for Northwest Branch Anacostia River near Colesville, MD. Data were collected for the purpose of cross-site comparison and correlating to other water quality parameters such as chloride. Conductivity and temperature were collected using a HOBO Fresh Water Conductivity Data Logger (Part # U24-001, Onset Computer Corp.) and converted to specific conductance at 25˚C. Data were collected at a 15-minute interval and downloaded manually every 60 days. The instrument is co-located with USGS stream gaging station 01650500. This data set is part of the Urban Critical Zone Cluster in the NSF Critical Zone Collaborative Network.
