This file is out of date has been combined in a multi-year file. See: Bowden, W. 2020. Kuparuk River stream temperature and discharge measured each summer, Dalton Road crossing, Arctic LTER Toolik Field Staion, Alaska 1978-2019 Environmental Data Initiative. http://dx.doi.org/10.6073/pasta/b407edbe788d9be27662009e1be8331b Water temperature and stream discharge were determined for the Kuparuk River in 2009. In many years, temperature and stream height were recorded manually each day. In recent years, dataloggers have measured stream temperature and stream height at regular intervals. A rating curve was developed to calculate continuous discharge from stage height. Temperature was also measured on an hourly basis. Stage height was measured on the Kuparuk about 1 km above the Dalton Highway crossing.
