Data Creek

Monitoring Location at Typo Creek Drive, Linwood Township
STORET SiteID = DataCreek_TypoCreekDr
Monitored By ACD Staff

Notes: This stream is also referred to as the West Branch of the Sunrise River . It accounts for about 70-75% of the water budget of Typo Lake . The watershed of this stream and its tributaries is mostly agricultural, wetland, and upland forest (in order of prevalence). The stream is moderate sized, typically 1-3 feet deep and 5-10 feet wide. Monitoring of stream hydrology at this site has been critical to calculating nutrient loading to Typo Lake during a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL, aka impaired waters) study of Typo and Martin Lakes that began in 2001.

A rating curve to calculate flows (cfs) from stage data was constructed in 2002, and is:

Discharge (cfs) = 2.71459*(stage-897) 2 – 4870.11*(stage-897) +2184303

R 2=0.97

S Summary of Monitored Years

*Note: Not all monitored years are listed. Please refer to mapping utility for complete data.

"All Years" is not an average of each year's summary statistic. Rather, it is calculated from the continuous, multi-year record.
