KRIS Klamath : Meta Information Page
This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.
Meta Identifier | McBain_flood |
Type of Data | 50 and 100-year flood magnitude estimates for bridge locations on the Trinity River |
Originator | McBain and Trush |
Description | Study estimating the 50 and 100-year tributary flood magnitude at the four bridge sites between Lewiston Dam (RM 112) and Treadwell Bridge (RM 97.4) under the winter flood season (November-March) and the snowmelt runoff season (May-June). These flood magnitude estimates will help facilitate bridge design. |

Data Set Name | flow_spring_flood_estimates_trinity_mcbaintrush_2002.dbf |
Purpose | Estimate 50 and 100-year tributary flood magnitude at the four bridge sites between Lewiston Dam (RM 112) and Treadwell Bridge (RM 97.4) under the winter flood season (November-March) and the snowmelt runoff season (May-June). These flood magnitude estimates will help develop bridge design criteria. |
Data Quality Information | high; results are cross-checked and ranking is based on the quality of data, length of data, applicability of data, and applicability of analysis. |
Use Constraints | none |
Supplemental Information | The report evaluates multiple methods for estimating flood magnitudes and rates the results based on the expected accuracy of the flood magnitude prediction. The ranking is based on the quality of data, length of data, applicability of data, and applicability of analysis. Concurrent with this report, the Reclamation is evaluating whether anticipated future Safety of Dam releases from Lewiston Dam are larger than 50 and 100-year tributary floods. |
