River stage and temperature dataset for 2021-2024 collected for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers downstream of the Kinzua Dam, Pennsylvania.
This dataset contains river stage (in meters and feet), water surface elevation (WSE), and temperature data collected at 3 focal areas of research included in the Sustainable Rivers Program (SRP) in the Allegheny River that were collected and processed in collaboration with US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This dataset is a combination of data collected by Hobo* U20L water level data loggers and multiple Hobo* TidBit temperature sensors at each focal area. River stage was calculated using the Hobo* software and utilized the barometric pressure at the stage loggers within each area (as a result of the amount of sitting water above the logger creating pressure and the atmospheric pressure above the water) combined with the atmospheric barometric pressure measured at the nearby USGS West Hickory gage (#03016000) also measured with a U20L.
