INTRODUCTION TO SEDIMENT DATA HISTOGRAMS
The frequencies of suspended-sediment discharge within individual years and the importance of infrequent large storms in producing large sediment loads can be demonstrated by examining the proportion of suspended sediment discharged during 1, 10, and 100 percent of the year. Sufficient data are available at more than 250 gaging stations to examine this within year frequency. Each histogram shows, for the period of record, the total suspended-sediment discharge for each water year. Each bar of the histogram is divided into the suspended-sediment discharged in 1 percent of the year (3.65 days), 10 percent of the year (36.5 days), and the rest of the year. These frequencies are generated by ranking the sediment discharge for each day of the year; therefore, the days represented in a category may not be consecutive.
