Abstract

The purpose of this report is to present data on the elevation and discharge of floods on the Little Sioux, Ocheyedan, and Maple Rivers in Iowa. These data are presented as profiles of several floods including the outstanding flood of 1965 (on the Little Sioux) and the computed profiles of the 25- and 50-year frequency floods. Peak discharge data for these floods are shown on the profile sheets. Stage and discharge data for plotting hydrographs at gaging stations are shown in an appendix. Annual peak-stage and peak-discharge data for the period of record at gaging stations and the flood-frequency data for the State have been published by the Iowa Highway Research Board (Schwob, 1966). They are not republished in this report.
