Summary

Acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data were collected at multiple transects in the Calumet River mouth on May 12, 2015. Data were reviewed and processed to compute discharge in the river under unsteady conditions using the native data collection software (RDI WinRiver II) and the QRev USGS software for ADCP discharge review.

Purpose

Water discharges were measured in the Calumet River mouth using a Teledyne Rio Grande 600 kHz ADCP. The data were georeferenced with differential Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers with submeter accuracy. These velocity data were collected in cooperation with the US Army Corps of Engineers, Chicago District.
