Data needed to generate hydrolic rating curves of areas along Lower Mississippi River.
Ratings are used for a variety of reasons in water-resources investigations. The simplest rating relates discharge to the stage of the river. From a pure hydrodynamics perspective, all rivers and streams have some form of hysteresis in the relation between stage and discharge because of unsteady flow as a flood wave passes. Simple ratings are unable to represent hysteresis in a stage/discharge relation. A dynamic rating method is capable of capturing hysteresis owing to the variable energy slope caused by unsteady momentum and pressure. Using some simplifying assumptions, Fread (1973) developed what was termed a “dynamic loop” rating method to compute discharge from a time series of stage at a single streamgage...
