USGS Stream Statistics
StreamStats makes the process of computing streamflow statistics for ungaged
sites much faster, more accurate, and more consistent than previously used
manual methods. It also makes streamflow statistics for gaged sites available
without the need to locate, obtain, and read the publications in which they
were originally provided.
