Abstract

This resource contains discharge data from two streams flowing from the Bitterroot Mountains into the Bitterroot Valley in western Montana. Stage measurements were taken with a Solinst Level Vent 5 vented transducer. Discharge measurements were made using a Flow Tracker. Discharge measurements were only made during periods when the stream was safely wadeable.

Rating curve created using a power law relationship.

Data Files are csv files with date, stage, inferred discharge and measured discharge.

These gauges were added as part of an investigation of hydrogeodesy in mountain watersheds. GPS data from each site can be downloaded from UNAVCO.
