Hydraulic calibration results for the Lazy Day reach of the Big Piney River, near St. Robert, Missouri
Description
This dataset includes the discharge values and calibration results for five discharge measurements collected at the Lazy Day (LD) reach on the Big Piney River near St. Robert, Missouri between November 19, 2020 and August 25, 2021. Discharge measurements were collected by USGS staff from the Columbia Environmental Research Center using an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) and Real Time Kinematic Global Navigation Satellite Systems (RTK GNSS) positioning. Calibration was performed to produce optimal values of downstream water-surface slope and Manning's roughness (Manning's n) for a one-dimensional hydraulic model of the LD reach.
