Lower Ocklawaha River Basin Hydrologic Data Review and Discharge Analysis. Special Publication SJ2010-SP10

摘要

This investigation was completed in support of the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) water supply planning process and ongoing efforts to develop minimum flows and levels (MFLs) for the Ocklawaha River Basin (ORB). This report has several goals. The first is to identify long-term trends, in ORB rainfall and discharge, if such trends exist. If trends are identified, then the second major goal is to determine to the extent practical the underlying cause(s). To help accomplish these goals, previous investigations dealing in whole or in part with ORB yield were reviewed and summarized. Also, as a prerequisite to this analysis, available hydrologic data including rainfall records, stream discharge records and individual spring discharge measurements were compiled, reviewed and compared.
