Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study - Streamwater Chemistry (HBWatER)
Long-term experimental forest record measuring precipitation and streamwater chemistry at least weekly since 1963 across nine gauged watersheds in New Hampshire: ammonium, nitrate, phosphate, major ions and pH. One of the longest continuous stream chemistry records.

What you can do with it
Typical work that data of this type supports.
- 01
Hotspots and trends
Find where contamination is high and whether it is getting worse.
Because it has: Water Quality
- 02
Compliance checks
Compare samples against drinking water and discharge standards.
- 03
Design flows
Estimate 1-in-50 and 1-in-100 year floods for bridges, culverts and spillways.
Where AI adds value
Ideas for machine learning and AI agents built on this kind of data.
- 01
Risk maps
Predict contamination where no samples exist, from geology, land use and climate.
- 02
Anomaly alerts
Catch sudden spikes in sensor or lab data automatically.
- 03
Flow forecasting
Train LSTM-style models on past records to forecast river levels and flow days ahead.
