Other Tips

Export Files: when exporting data to a local computer, tab- or or comma-delimited files generally work well for "serial" output and large queries that do not export successfully to Excel. (When exporting cross-tab output, use the comma-delimited option to have all site and sample information repeated on each row of the exported file.)


User ID or Password prompt: enter JQPUBLIC if asked for either of these items during a retrieval session.


Data Limit: query retrievals are limited to 25,000 results. If more results are needed, check "Data Retrieval Tips" under HELP.


For additional information about the NAWQA study unit and other water resources located in a particular State, check study units and local water science centers.
