This tabular dataset contains exported tables from the Water Quality relational database used to manage, quality-control, and archive water quality monitoring data for the Southern Colorado Plateau Network (SCPN) Water Quality Protocol. The tables include event-level sampling information, field measurements, laboratory water chemistry results, sonde deployment records, continuous sonde observations, lookup tables, and related supporting data needed to interpret the database structure. These files are provided as a tabular export of the working database tables. They are intended to support data preservation, transparency, and reuse, but they do not constitute a fully normalized database package or complete EML data package. Users should retain table relationships using the primary and foreign key fields included in the exported tables, such as EventID, EventSondeID, EventSondeDataID, and related lookup identifiers.
