Description:
Abstract:
This dataset provides shapefiles and tables of water flow data (acquired in the field August 2021) and inputs for calculating annual exceedance probability discharges along the Totatlanika River in central Alaska.
Purpose:
This dataset was acquired for the purpose of quantifying flow recurrence for mobilizing bedload along the Totatlanika River, which drains the minerally endowed and tectonically active northern Alaska Range. These data can be used to understand sediment transport and landscape processes in this system.
