Quigley, S.M., 2003, Ohio flood regions for use with Water Resources Investigations Report 03-4164: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9U3F93G.

Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. This coverage was used to determine the flood region associated with stream basins in Ohio. This information is required to use regression equations presented by Koltun (2003).

Purpose

This data set was developed to facilitate determination of the flood region in which a basin's centroid is located. Information on the flood region is required to select the proper coefficient to be used in regression equations for developing flood-frequency estimates.
