Lower Hudson River Discharge and Sediment Flux

In cooperation with The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's Division of Water and Hudson River Estuary Program


HUDSON RIVER BELOW POUGHKEEPSIE, NY (01372058)
Suspended Sediment and Discharge Current Conditions

Data is collected every 15 minutes and updated here every 4 hours. Data indicated as "net" or "tidal filtered" has been digitally filtered to remove the effect of the daily tide; this process makes the last 100 data values collected (25 hours) unavailable, therefore there will be a 25 to 29 hour delay in the reporting of these data. All data are Eastern Standard Time.
