Magnitude and Frequency of Iowa Floods

Flood records for regular and partial-record gaging stations are contained in this report. Each listing contains the station number and name, descriptive paragraphs pertaining to the station, and a listing of the flood peaks available through the 1965 water year (October 1, 1964 to September 30, 1965). Peaks above a base as well as annual peaks are listed. These provide the data for a partial-duration flood-frequency curve.
