This data release is a subset of the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) water bodies, specifically lakes Mendocino and Sonoma in the Russian River watershed. The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a feature-based database that interconnects and uniquely identifies the stream segments or reaches that make up the nation's surface water drainage system. NHD data was originally developed at 1:100,000-scale and exists at that scale for the whole country. This high-resolution NHD, generally developed at 1:24,000/1:12,000 scale, adds detail to the original 1:100,000-scale NHD. (Data for Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands was developed at high-resolution, not 1:100,000 scale.) Local resolution NHD is being developed where partners and data exist. The NHD contains reach codes for networked features, flow direction, names, and centerline representations for areal water bodies. Reaches are also defined on waterbodies and the approximate shorelines of the Great Lakes, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. The NHD also incorporates the National Spatial Data Infrastructure framework criteria established by the Federal Geographic Data Committee. The National Hydrography Dataset is a comprehensive set of digital spatial data that encodes information about naturally occurring and constructed bodies of water, paths through which water flows, and related entities. The information encoded about features includes a feature date, classification by type, other characteristics, a unique common identifier, the feature length or area, and (rarely) elevation of the surface of water pools and a description of the stage of the elevation. For reaches, encoded information includes a reach code. Names and their identifiers in the Geographic Names Information System, are assigned to most feature types. The direction of flow is encoded for networked features. The data also contains relations that encode metadata, and information that supports the exchange of future updates and improvements to the data. The names and definitions of all feature types, characteristics, and values are in the Standards for National Hydrography Dataset: Reston, Virginia, U.S. Geological Survey, 1999. The document is available online through http://mapping.usgs.gov/standards/.

This data release is a shapefile of USGS streamgage locations in the Russian River watershed and the outflow point of the Russian River.

This data release contains a shapefile of streamflow gage locations in the Russian River watershed and an excel document with the daily timeseries of streamflow for these gages.

This is a shapefile of the streamflow network. This dataset contains the SFR segment and reach data along with the non-calibrated Streamflow-Routing (SFR) package parameter values.

This data release contains 2 shapefiles used in the Russian River Integrated Hydrologic Model (RRIHM). These shapefiles are: 1) groundwater wells (with measured ground water levels), and 2) streamflow gages. It also includes a comma separated values (CSV) file of measured daily streamflow (in cubic feet per second).

This dataset provides a shapefile of agricultural ponds used in the Russian River Coupled Groundwater and Surface-Water Flow Model (GSFLOW) model.

This shapefile is the 2014 agricultural fields from the California Department of Water Resources intersected with the Russian River Integrated Hydrologic Model (RRIHM) grid. Spatially, this data shows the boundaries of the 2014 agricultural fields with the model grid dissected into the fields. The shapefile attribute table shows the data from both the agricultural fields and the model grid shapefiles. The RRIHM grid can be found in it's own data release on the Russian River Integrated Hydrologic Model (RRIHM) Coupled Ground-Water and Surface-Water Flow Model Science Base community page.

This dataset provides a shapefile of the surface water diversions to agricultural ponds in the Russian River Coupled Groundwater and Surface-Water Flow Model (GSFLOW) model.

This dataset provides a shapefile containing the the agricultural wells used in the Russian River Coupled Groundwater and Surface-Water Flow Model (GSFLOW) model.

This dataset provides a shapefile of surface water diversions directly to agricultural fields in the Russian River Coupled Groundwater and Surface-Water Flow Model (GSFLOW) model.
