Abstract
The Ware River is a small coastal estuary draining into the Chesapeake Bay estuary. VIMS monitored the Ware watershed for rain events, runoff, and impacts to the estuary from April 1979 through July 1981. This entry contains the runoff volume, rainfall and water quality monitoring data files for the portion of the study known as Part 1 – Nonpoint source contributions. Streams and small catchments representing suburban, agricultural and forested small basins were monitored regularly and during large rainfall events to estimate pollution loading to the estuary from the watershed. Methods and results are documented in the related literature. Data files were processed using SAS ver. 9.4 software (Statistical Analysis System, SAS Institute, Inc.) and are provided in Text (.csv) format. The SAS scripts used for processing and original data files are also provided. See the readme.txt file for data dictionary and further data processing information.
