River Flow from Canadian Rivers - HYDAT

Parameter River Flow/Discharge Measurement Details monthly and daily stream/river flow Custodian Environment Canada Publication HYDAT CD-ROM available as a commercial product - $750 (CDN) IOSPBSData Distribution Monthly river flow data files for the Columbia, Fraser, Skeena and Kenai are available at IOS on the SHARE_DATA disk - \RIVERFLO directory, along with a document that describes the sources of the data. Historical data from the Fraser River (up to 1990) was obtained from http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/datasets/fraser-river, with recent data added from the USGS website http://water.usgs.gov/nwc/contents.html. Further details in the RIVERFLO.DOC in the \RIVERFLO directory PSARC_Utility River flow data is key to much work in stock assessment esp. for salmon. Improvements Assemble and maintain a single set of river flow data and make this available in selected formats. This may require some negotiation with Environment Canada. Purchase an updated HYDAT CD-ROM and add it to IOS Library collection (can be borrowed). Data for Canadian rivers from USGS sources should be verified.
