Authoritative data on streams across the Western Mississippi and Gulf regions
This volume presents the 1903 progress report on stream measurements, compiling discharge data and gauge information from a wide range of river basins in the Western Mississippi River drainage and the Western Gulf drainage. It offers detailed observations, historical context, and technical findings that support water-supply planning and hydrologic study.
The edition includes a comprehensive contents section, a map illustrating principal gaging stations, and monthly discharge records. It consolidates measurements from many rivers, including notes on site conditions, gage setup, and rating curves. The material is geared toward researchers, engineers, and students seeking precise, historical hydrologic data.
- Discharge measurements for dozens of river basins across the region
- Notes on gaging stations, measurement methods, and data interpretation
- Illustrations and tables to support historical hydrology research
- Scope that covers Western Mississippi River drainage up to the Western Gulf drainage
Ideal for readers of historical hydrology, water-resource history, and technical reference alike.
