Station Notes
|
The 1-hour
precipitation data for this station are temporary and
will only be displayed for 60 days. Time series of 1-hour or
cumulative daily values will NOT be available for retrieval
following the 60-day display period. Although the
instrumentation is calibrated at least once/year, the
temporary classification means that documented routine
inspections and other quality assurance measures are not
performed that would make the data acceptable for archival,
retrieval, or future use in general scientific or
interpretive studies. |
|
The apparatus
currently installed to determine discharge at this station,
which was designed primarily to measure medium to high flows,
produces unreliable results for the low discharges that now
typically occur in the canal. Therefore, only gage height
will be displayed until an improved method for producing
reliable low discharges has been determined and
installed. |
