This data release is the update of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) - ScienceBase data release Bera (2023), with the processed data for the period October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022. This data release describes the watershed data management (WDM) database WBDR22.WDM. The precipitation data are collected from a tipping-bucket rain-gage network and the hydrologic data (stage and discharge) are collected at USGS streamflow-gaging stations in and around West Branch DuPage River watershed in DuPage County, Illinois, as described in Bera (2017). Hourly precipitation and hydrologic data for the period October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022, are processed following the guidelines described in Bera (2017) and appended to WBDR21.WDM (Bera, 2023) and renamed as WBDR22.WDM. Meteorological data (wind speed, solar radiation, air temperature, dewpoint temperature, and potential evapotranspiration) are copied from ARGNXX.WDM and appended to WBDRXX.WDM. XX represents last two digits of a water year (WY). A WY is the 12-month period, October 1 through September 30, in which it ends. Errors have been found in each of ARGNXX.WDM prior to WY23. WBDRXX.wdm contains erroneous meteorological data and related flag values until WY21 thereby. Meteorological data (wind speed, solar radiation, air temperature, dewpoint temperature, and potential evapotranspiration) from January 1, 2007, through September 30, 2022, are copied from ARGN23.WDM and uploaded to WBDR22.WDM. The missing rainfall periods are filled with the nearby raingage data as a part of the QA/QC process. Some missing period is filled with the data from a nearby raingage in Salt Creek watershed (Bera, 2014). The complete list of missing precipitation data period and the nearby stations used to fill in those missing periods during October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022, is given in the Table1. Table1 is provided in comma separated values (CSV) file format. The list of snow affected days of precipitation data and the missing and estimated period of the stage and flow data in WBDR22.WDM database during the period October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022, are given in the USGS annual Water Data Report at https://wdr.water.usgs.gov. Data in dataset number (DSN) 107 and 801–811 are used in comparisons of precipitation data. DSN 107 contains hourly precipitation data from tipping bucket rain gages collected at Argonne National Laboratory at Argonne, Illinois. DSN 801-811 contains the processed Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD)-Multisensor Precipitation Estimates (MPE) data from 11 NEXRAD–MPE subbasins in the West Branch DuPage River watershed as described in Bera and Ortel (2018). The data are downloaded and uploaded daily into a WDM database that is used for the real-time streamflow simulation system. Data from DSN 107 and 801-811 are copied from this WDM and stored in WBDR22.WDM. DSN 107 and 801-811 are updated with the data through September 30, 2022. Data in DSN 4031 (water-surface elevation from West Branch DuPage River at Fawell Dam) is updated through September 30, 2022, similarly (Bera, 2017). To open the WBDR22.WDM file, the user needs to install SARA Timeseries Utility from the link in the section "Related External Resources" on this page. Table1.csv can be opened with any text editor or Microsoft Excel.
