Lower St. Croix River Steady State Hydraulic Inputs for FluOil Workshop

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2023-03-13T00:00:00Z
This data release contains steady-state hydraulic input files for the FluOil model (Zhu and others, 2022) that describe the lower St. Croix River between St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin, and Stillwater, Minnesota. These files are derived from the results of a steady-state one dimensional (1D) hydraulic model of the river reach at three discharges (10,000, 20,000, and 35,000 cubic feet per second (cfs)) and include the flow depth, velocity magnitude, and shear velocity along the model domain. A constant temperature of 20 degrees Celsius is also specified. The hydraulic model used to generate this dataset was originally adapted from an existing U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center River Analysis System (HEC-RAS; Version 5.0.6) model to inform the prediction of invasive carp spawning potential on the lower St. Croix River (Kasprak and others, 2022).
