This data provides results from field analyses, from the California Environmental Data Exchange Network (CEDEN). The data set contains two provisionally assigned values (“DataQuality” and “DataQualityIndicator”) to help users interpret the data quality metadata provided with the associated result. Due to file size limitations, the data has been split into individual resources by year. The entire dataset can also be downloaded in bulk using the zip files on this page (in csv format or parquet format), and developers can also use the API associated with each year's dataset to access the data. Example R code using the API to access data across all years can be found [here](https://gist.github.com/daltare/2de1517ad1e315c4b1cad01278de96dd). Users who want to manually download more specific subsets of the data can also use the CEDEN query tool, at: https://ceden.waterboards.ca.gov/AdvancedQueryTool

These field and lab chemistry data are consistent with other CEDEN data found on this site and through the CEDEN query tool but they have not yet been loaded to CEDEN. They include data from files that have been submitted for loading since approximately December 2020 but are not yet available through the query tool.

,The California Water Boards’ Water Data Center is proud to present the CA Water Quality Status Report. This report is an annual data-driven snapshot of the Water Board's water quality and environmental data. This inaugural version of the report is based solely on the surface water datasets available via the [Surface Water Ambient Monitoring Program (SWAMP)] (http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/swamp/) and in future years we hope to expand this to include the groundwater, drinking water and water resource datasets available in our state. Our goal is to use data to inform both data storytelling (as in this inaugural report) and water quality indicators, including watershed report cards.,The 2017 Water Quality Status Report is organized around seven major themes that our team thought both individually and collectively tell important stories about the overall health of our state’s surface waters. Each theme-specific story includes a brief background, a data analysis summary, an overview of management actions, and access to the raw data.,For more information please contact the Office of Information Management and Analysis (OIMA).,,Data for the section “Setting Flow Targets to Support Biological Integrity in Southern California Streams” can be found on the California open data portal. Data for the section “Nutrients and Algae in Aquatic Ecosystems” can be found here.,

Discrete water quality monitoring data from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Bay-Delta collected by the Environmental Monitoring Program. Data is also accessible via the [Environmental Data Initiative](https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=edi&identifier=458&revision=10).

,Information about sampling locations for data from the California Environmental Data Exchange Network (CEDEN). This set of station/project combinations can be combined with other data sets from CEDEN to provide more information. CEDEN is the California State Water Board's data system for surface water quality in California, and seeks to include all available statewide data (such as that produced by research and volunteer organizations). Data in CEDEN include field, sediment and water column data collected from freshwater, estuarine, and marine environments. Examples of data in CEDEN come from laboratory, physical and biological analyses and include data types associated with chemical, toxicological, field, bioassessment, invertebrate, fish, and bacteriological assay assessments.,
