<br />same d~ainage a~ea. The~e is ove~ 5,OOO~ va~iation in flood discha~ge <br /> <br /> <br />estimates fo~ 10 squa~e mile basins in the South Platte, A~kansas o~ Colo~ado <br /> <br /> <br />Rive~ Basin. <br />With such a g~eat amount of va~iation between application of methods in <br /> <br /> <br />flood-f~equency estimates in the South Platte, A~kansas, and Colo~ado Rive~ <br /> <br /> <br />Basins, it is impo~tant to cla~ify whe~e the unce~tainty in discha~ge quantity <br /> <br /> <br />estimate is occu~~ing, what these diffe~ences a~e and what the impo~tant <br /> <br />va~iables dete~mining discha~ge a~e in o~de~ to p~omote a g~eate~ <br /> <br /> <br />unde~standing of the hyd~ology in Colo~ado. This study calculates flood <br /> <br /> <br />discha~ges using the latest available ~eg~ession equations, compa~es the <br /> <br /> <br />~esults with available published st~eamflow data, and indicates whe~e <br /> <br /> <br />additional info~mation may imp~ove flood estimating techniques. <br /> <br />4 <br />
