Relations between water-surface elevation data derived from satellite altimetry and dynamic surface water extent data derived from LANDSAT imagery data were used with a modified Manning's equation to compute remotely sensed streamflows (RSQ) at locations on the Tanana, Yukon, Susitna, Nushagak, Copper, Koyukuk and Knik Rivers in Alaska using satellite data. Data are organized into zip archives named for each study reach. Refer to the README file in each study reach archive for additional reach-specific details.

Data sets included:

Copper River Metadata Data (251KB)
Nushagak River Metadata Data (252KB)
Tanana River Metadata Data (256KB)
Yukon River Metadata Data (256KB)
Susitna River Metadata Data (256KB)
Knik River Metadata Data (248KB)
