Name:
sed.q.bcards - Quickly pull UV discharge bcard files for use in the Graphical Constituent Loading Analysis System (GCLAS).
This script was retired from active support in February 2013. Functionality is now contained in the more "generic" get.bcards script which will also quickly pull discharge data bcard files as well as any other parameter desired (primarily for importing into GCLAS, either for streamflow data or other reference data such as turbidity). This page is available for historical reference only. Use of local versions of the old script without extensive testing is not recommended and the consequences are your own. If you feel this script was retired prematurely and would like to see it restored send email to GS-W OSW Scripts@usgs.gov.
Information:
This script quickly pulls UV discharge bcard files for a given water year for any number of stations using the ADAPS program outwat. These files are used to input discharge data into the GCLAS program so that constituent loads (discharges) can be computed. The script increases the speed with which bcard files can be produced by only prompting user for absolutely necessary information and allowing multiple stations to be processed at once.
Script prompts user for the water year to be retrieved and then queries user for station ID, recording interval, and discharge DD for every station to be processed. Output is then placed in the current working directory and named station.Q.wateryear.BCARD.
Where "station" = station ID of the UV discharges included in the file
"wateryear" = water year of UV discharges included in the file
USAGE: sed.q.bcards - all information will be prompted for – no command line functions currently supported.
