Contents of an ASCII daily values (ADV) file Version 1.0 1 Sep 92 Each file contains the daily values of streamflow in cubic feet per second (CFS) for one station. The filename is nnnnnnnn.ADV where nnnnnnnn is the station number. There are 31 records for each water year - one record for each day (1 through 31) of the month. Each record contains the 12 values corresponding to that day in each of the months (October through September) of the water year. Printing the 31 records for a single water year (wwww) in order of day-of-month would produce a table appearing as: nnnnnnnn wwww 1 Q_Oct_1 Q_Nov_1 Q_Dec_1 Q_Jan_1 ...

Columns Format Contents 1-8 I8 Station number - the 8 digit station number uniquely identifying the station. 9 1X Blank. 10-13 I4 Water year. A water year starts in October of the calendar year one year less than the water year and ends in September of the calendar year the same as the water year. For example, water year 1980 covers the period October 1, 1979 through September 30, 1980. 14 1X Blank. 15-16 I2 Day-of-month - the number of the day in the month for which a value is supplied for each month of the water year. 17-24 F8.x October - Streamflow in CFS for the day in October given by day-of-month. 25-32 F8.x November - Streamflow in CFS for the day in November given by day-of-month. 33-40 F8.x December - Streamflow in CFS for the day in December given by day-of-month. 41-48 F8.x January - Streamflow in CFS for the day in January given by day-of-month. 49-56 F8.x February - Streamflow in CFS for the day in February given by day-of-month. 57-64 F8.x March - Streamflow in CFS for the day in March given by day- of-month. 65-72 F8.x April - Streamflow in CFS for the day in April given by day- of-month. 73-80 F8.x May - Streamflow in CFS for the day in May given by day-of- month. 81-88 F8.x June - Streamflow in CFS for the day in June given by day-of- month. 89-96 F8.x July - Streamflow in CFS for the day in July given by day-of- month. 97-104 F8.x August - Streamflow in CFS for the day in August given by day- of-month. 105-112 F8.x September - Streamflow in CFS for the day in September given by day-of-month. Note: The number of decimal places for the streamflow values is variable depending on the magnitude of the streamflow. The field is always eight columns wide. The value is given to two decimal places for flow less than 1 CFS, one decimal place for flow of 1 CFS or greater but less than 10 CFS, and no decimal places for flow of 10 CFS or greater. There is a decimal point only if there are decimal places. The field for a non-existent day - for example, November 31 or September 31 - is blank. Conversion factor: Multiply cubic feet per second (CFS) by 0.02832 to obtain cubic meters per second. Format descriptions: In an integer field n columns wide. F8.x a real (float) field 8 columns wide. 1X a single blank column.
