TESNAR stands for the Technical training in Support of Native American Relations, and is a program run by the USGS to foster cooperation between tribes and the USGS by providing them with the tools and training to manage their tribal resources, such as water. As shown here, training in the Continuous Slope Area Method can help tribes a great deal, by providing data when their low-flow gages have been compromised by a high-flow events.
