This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.
Meta Identifier | PL_TTS |
Type of Data | Turbidity Threshold Sampling (stage, discharge, turbidity, suspended sediment) |
Originator | PALCO |
Description | PALCO conducts turbidity threshold sampling (tts) sampling at many stations in Freshwater Creek and Elk River. Data include stage (water height), discharge (stream flow), turbidity, and suspended sediment. |
Area | Freshwater Creek, Elk River |
Metadata Date | 3/6/2006 |
Metadata Contact | Eli Asarian |
Contact Person Primary | Dr. Kate Sullivan |
Status | complete |
Progress Log | Turbidity, discharge, and sediment load data for hydro years 2003-2004 have been included in KRIS, but not sediment lab data and Individual stage-discharge measurements. 2005 data have not been released. |
