feather_river_floodplain

Format

dataframe with 40 rows and 5 variables:

flow_cfs

integer flow value in cubic feet per second

Source

Central Valley Floodplain Evaluation and Delineation (CVFED) HEC-RAS hydraulic model

Fall Run, Spring Run and Steelhead Modeling

The entire mapped rearing extent of 64.98 miles was modeled using Central Valley Floodplain Evaluation and Delineation (CVFED) HEC-RAS hydraulic model. Active channel area of 2363.20 acres estimated through remote sensing analysis was subtracted from total inundated area to get inundated floodplain area.
