Surface velocity for the Androscoggin River, ME
A motion-stabilized UAS-derived average two-dimensional surface velocity field result for the Androscoggin River, Auburn, Maine on May 1, 2019. Yellow arrows depict relative surface velocity magnitudes and directions. Red "X"s depict areas excluded from analysis (ground). UAS data were collected as part of the 2019 Airshow breakthrough demonstration of river discharge

A partnership to protect critical infrastructure (Audio-Described)
This video is an introduction to the partnership between the USGS Arizona Water Science Center and the Arizona Department of Transportation, or ADOT, as it is referred to throughout the video. These two agencies are working together, using cutting edge technology and methods, to understand how flood flows interact with and impact critical infrastructure. These data will

Flooding at Vekol Wash, Arizona
Flooding at Vekol Wash today, south of Phoenix, following remnant rains from Hurricane Rosa.
A USGS guide for finding and interpreting high-water marks (AD)
High-water marks provide valuable data for understanding recent and historical flood events. The proper collection and recording of high-water mark data from perishable and preserved evidence informs flood assessments, research, and water resource management. This video provides guidance for skilled high-water mark identification, including marks left behind in natural and

Understanding Floods | Long-term Streamflow Data Collection (AD)
The USGS is developing methods to improve data collection during floods to gain new insight into the rise and fall of flood waters. In the past, the only data left behind after a flood was how high the water got, or the peak of the flood. This video presents the methodology that hydrologists are using to set up a Continuous Slope-area Reach in remote areas that are

Advances in Streamgaging | Reach-Scale Monitoring Experiment (2 of 2)
In this second installment of a two part series, The Arizona Water Science Center, in partnership with the USDA Agricultural Research Service, reviews the results of an experiment to verify remote methods that measure flood flows at the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed. What makes this experiment unique are the super-critical runoff flumes that precisely measure
