Grid interpolation was done by means of the\ninterpolate surface routine contained in the Spatial Analyst extension of ArcView.\nThe inverse distance weighting (IDW) algorithm was used based on the 12 nearest\nneighbors.\n\t\t\nThe streamflow-variability index at a streamflow-gaging station is defined as the\nstandard deviation of the logarithms of the 19 streamflow values at 5-percent\nclass intervals from 5 to 95 percent on the flow-duration curve (Searcy, 1959) of\ndaily mean streamflow for the analysis period.\n\t\t\nSearcy, J.K., 1959, Flow-duration curves, manual of hydrology-part 2, low-flow\ntechniques: U.S. Geological Survey Water-Supply Paper 1542-A, 33 p.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9OEYYUN", "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.e4a0c579-551f-4ec6-957e-bac7806972a5.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_e4a0c579-551f-4ec6-957e-bac7806972a5", "keyword": ["USGS:e4a0c579-551f-4ec6-957e-bac7806972a5", "environment", "geoscientificInformation", "inlandWaters", "streamflow variability index"], "modified": "2020-11-17T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-85.23894406, 38.3753101, -80.21633057, 42.07920262", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Grid of streamflow variability index for Ohio"}
