Monthly Discharges for Rivers and Streams of the former Soviet Union

Monthly river flow rates for Russia and former Soviet Union countries in RDA dataset ds553.1 are augmented with data from the Russian State Hydrological Institute (RSHI) and a few sites from the Global Hydroclimatic Data Network (GHCDN) . This compendium (v1.1 September 2001) includes 2458 gauges spanning all major river and oceanographic basins of the entire former Soviet Union. Exact dates vary by station. Records are generally long: mean length is 36.3 years and 1724 (70%) gauges have 25 or more years of data. 1373 gauges have data to 1985 and another 909 gauges also have some data from 1986-1995. 640 gauges represent watersheds of 10000 or more square kilometers, and 1055 gauges represent catchments of 1000-9999 square kilometers. The RSHI data additions have not been scrutinized as rigorously as for those in ds553.1.
