Record in below format. With this data, predict what the dates of peak flow for Corwin Springs were in 1997 and 1998. Use time lapse to predict peak flows at all other stations investigated. Obtain peak flow from Corwin Springs for 1997 and 1998. Give reasons for inaccuracy.
Teacher can build a data table and have students predict peak flow arrival times.
Determine the elevational changes between adjoining stations. Graph the data to visualization any changes found. Summarize and discuss your conclusions. Find the peak flow dates from years 1970-90 and repeat the lab. Obtain the peak discharges and graph it against river miles to see how river size changes with length.
