Namoi Water quality time series for selected stations

Abstract

This dataset and its metadata were supplied to the Bioregional Assessments Programme by the NSW Office of Water and is presented here as originally supplied. The dataset includes daily water quality parameters time series for selected gauging stations within the Namoi subregion. Data includes, electrical conductivity, total suspended solids and temperature.

Gaps in data records

Gaps in data records are more to occur likely during extreme events, particularly for gauging stations, where the data is automatically audited and potentially erroneous data is prevented from being displayed (Unreported data).

Data validation

The Office of Water is endeavouring to validate data as quickly as possible. Our performance indicator aims for data to be validated is within 100 days.

With respect to use of data:

Unvalidated data (Quality Code 130) has not been rigorously assessed and the data is quality coded to indentify this. These data should be used with care as they may change after validation. These data should only be used by persons who are familiar with the characteristics of streamflow information.

Validated data are data that has been assessed and is the best available quality at the time, however the data should always be interpreted taking into account the quality codes that have been applied.

Hydrologic advice should be sought to assist with any interpretation.

Purpose

To show examples of water quality parameters for selected stations.
