Parameter Search

Parameter Search is designed to be used as a data discovery tool to search the entire STEWARDS database. Using the Parameter Search allows the user to find research locations (sites) that collect data that may be of interest.

There are two kinds of Parameter Searches available: Keyword Search or Advanced Search

Under the Keyword Search a user can enter a single keyword or portion of a keyword that would represent an analyte or constituent of interest.




Under the Advanced Search a user can choose a parameter, or several parameters by holding down ctrl or shift and drag or click across multiple parameters.

All parameters in the list may be selected. Data can be restricted by Time Step, Duration, or Date Range. If multiple parameters are selected, the Date Range will display the inclusive range of dates for the selected parameters. There may not be data for all parameters in the displayed Date Range.



Once information is returned from the search, click on the hyperlinked SiteID to obtain a description of the site. The hyperlink under the location name for the watershed will provide a description of the watershed.

The output of both searches produces the results below.
