Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling near Myrtle Bend, June 3, 2013, Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, ID
Description
Acoustic doppler current profiling (ADCP) data was collected to describe streamflow
characteristics including total streamflow, velocity magnitude and secondary flow
structure, and backscatter intensity at 29 cross-sections at the Myrtle Creek Bend
on the Kootenai River on June 3, 2013. Each of the 29 cross-sections consisted of
4 transects or bank-to-bank coverage to obtain a representative velocity pattern.
The mean daily streamflow was around 35,500 cubic feet per second or 1,005 cubic
meters per second.
