Summary

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) compiled data from a variety of national and state agencies to create a comprehensive dataset of streamflow and stage for the lower Columbia River basin and the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and northern California. Seasonal maximum values were calculated for streamflow and stage for the winter (November–March) and spring (April–July) flow seasons, as well as for the full water year (October-September) when underlying data were available.

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to compile an up-to-date seasonal and annual data for streamflow and stage that will allow the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to reanalyze flood profiles and update estimates of uncertainty. The updated profiles will support the mission of the USACE and other public agencies in the study area involved with the mitigation of flood impacts.
