“…The data available for gauging stations are obtained from the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The data of the ungauged inlets are estimated using the StreamStats online software program and the Delaware River Basin Streamflow Estimator Tool (DRB-SET) established by the USGS (Stuckey and Ulrich, 2016). The basin characteristics are identified for ungauged stream locations in the StreamStats Beta Version 4.…”

The New York City (NYC) reservoirs in the Delaware River Basin are essential sources for goods and services, such as drinking water supply, recreation, power generation, and a host of ecosystem services. The reservoirs are located at the headwaters of the Delaware River, which supply water to New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware. However, the river is vulnerable to water shortages under changing climate conditions and needs to be managed wisely. This study developed a hydrologic model within the Stella modeling software for the NYC reservoirs to determine how historical reservoir management policies perform at meeting water demands in the basin and out-of-basin. The model provides information to better understand the interconnected effects of demands from water use sectors under different climate conditions, and to help addressing water shortages under water-stressed conditions. The model simulates reservoir releases based on inflows to reservoirs, water demand by sectors and historical reservoir management policies. The model predictions were compared with historical data to assure that the model was operating in the designed manner. The impact of this study extends directly to decision makers for water resources management, and stakeholders who rely on water resources in the basin.

contributed enthusiasm and funding, as well as all of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) water science center personnel who have worked to provide data and coordinated with the Stream-Stats national development team over the years to implement StreamStats for individual States.Thanks to what was then the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Management (MDEM), now part of the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation, and to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP), for their courage and vision to invest in the initial development of the then-unproven technology that became Massachusetts StreamStats. Thanks, in particular, to Peter Phippen, who led the effort for the MDEM, and to Arthur Screpetis, who led the effort for the MDEP. In addition, thanks to the Massachusetts Bureau of Geographic Information (MassGIS), especially Christian Jacqz, Aleda Freeman, and Philip John, for their contribution of geographic information system data and programming expertise that made Massachusetts StreamStats possible. Also, thanks to Raj Singh, then of Syncline, Inc., for assistance with web programming for Massachusetts StreamStats.
