Several basin characteristics are easily derived from StreamStats basin delineations, such as basin area (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/).  Other basin characteristics require ancillary datasets as input.  The data provided through this data release are those data that have been collected, tested, and ultimately selected as a basis for FDC development.  These include PRISM 3-Month Average Precipitation, Thickness and Coarseness of Quaternary Sediments, and Soil Available Water Capacity.\nThere are 6 continuous parameter grids (CPGs; for a definition, see https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/412/section3.html) included in the Indiana portion of this data release: PRISM December to February Average Precipitation (prdecfeb00_cpg), PRISM September to November Average Precipitation (prsepnov00_cpg), index of permeability of Quaternary surficial sediments (qss_permb_cpg), index of permeability of Quaternary surficial sediments multiplied by their thickness (permbxthick_cpg), STATSGO Permeability (statsperm_cpg), and Available Water Capacity (watcapinil_cpg).", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9FM4VUZ", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5e42c597e4b0edb47be844f0.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5e42c597e4b0edb47be844f0", "keyword": ["Basin characteristics", "Flow-duration curve", "USGS:5e42c597e4b0edb47be844f0", "drainage basins", "stream-gage measurement", "streamflow", "watershed"], "modified": "2024-05-14T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-89.0137, 37.5218, -83.4290, 42.3786", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Data for the Estimation of Regional Flow-Duration Curves for Indiana (ver. 3.0, December 2021)"}
