Abstract

The purpose of this resource is to provide a script that automates data retrieval from the USGS NWIS database. Included in this resource is a Jupyter Notebook script (dataretrieval_percentiles.ipynb), that contains detailed comments for data extraction automation using the dataretrieval library. The script uses USGS 10126000 Bear River near Corinne, UT as a case study, however, the inputs can easily be modified such that a similar analysis could be performed for any watershed in the United States as long as there is an active USGS gage station or a period of record for which the gage stations was active. In addition to the aforementioned script, this resource contains a readme.txt file with instruction for opening and executing the script using the HydroShare and CUAHSI JupyterHub interface.
