- ended Discontinued gauges: 1 gauge has stopped reporting: Rio Bonito At Hondo, NM (last 1955). Their segments rest on fewer gauges after those years.
- flatline Rio Bonito At Hondo, NM: 1 run of 30+ days at exactly the same flow: 1.0 cfs for 31 days from Dec 1, 1932. Usually an estimated period (ice, a broken gauge) rather than measured daily flow.
- zero run Rio Bonito At Hondo, NM: 17 runs of 60+ days at zero flow; longest 207 days from Dec 27, 1950; 205 days from Sep 27, 1951. Usually real (a dry channel or no release), not missing data.
Values removed (0)
A reading is removed automatically only when it is impossible (for example, a daily mean above the highest flow USGS recorded that water year). Low and zero flows are never removed: rivers here really do dry up.
None.
