Summary

This dataset contains U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) field survey data at nine dam-removal and culvert-retrofit sites in the northeastern United States (Olson and Simeone, 2021). The USGS field data survey are used to support the development of one-dimensional and two-dimensional U.S. Army Corps of Engineer (USACE) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) models for the post-dam removal and culvert-retrofit conditions. The referenced models were used to evaluate fish passage and flood risk along the simulated reaches in the various states simulated. The field survey data consists of Global Navigation Satellite System-derived orthometric heights in the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 and projected horizontal [...]

Purpose

These data were collected and compiled to develop and support hydraulic models at selected dam-removal and culvert-retrofit sites in the northeastern United States (Olson and Simeone, 2021) to study fish passage and flood risk along the reaches in the various states. One-dimensional and two-dimensional hydraulic models were developed to improve simulations and assess the output results for water surface elevation, flood extent, and flow velocity from two types of models.
