Floodplain inundation is believed to be the dominant physical driver of an array of ecosystem patterns and processes in the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS). Here, we present a time series of daily surface water inundation depths (in feet) for floodplain surfaces in the UMRS. The time series data are for the months of April through September of every year since 1940. These months were chosen because it approximates the period during which most biophysical processes such as vegetation metabolism and biogeochemical cycling are likely to be strongest across the longitudinal gradient of the UMRS. Data were derived from a geospatial model of surface water inundation developed for the UMRS and described in Van Appledorn...

Floodplain inundation is believed to be the dominant physical driver of an array of ecosystem patterns and processes in the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS). Here, we present a time series of daily surface water inundation depths (in feet) for floodplain surfaces in the UMRS. The time series data are for the months of April through September for select years since 1940. These months were chosen because it approximates the period during which most biophysical processes such as vegetation metabolism and biogeochemical cycling are likely to be strongest across the longitudinal gradient of the UMRS. Data were generated without water surface elevations from the mid-pool gaging location at Sabula, IA due to missing...

Floodplain inundation is believed to be the dominant physical driver of an array of ecosystem patterns and processes in the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS). A geospatial model of floodplain inundation described in Van Appledorn et al. (2021; doi: 10.1002/rra.3628) generates depth time series data for the UMRS floodplain extent. These depth time series data are typically generated from daily water surface elevations from three gaging locations along the mainstem of the Upper Mississippi River in Pool 13. However, due to missing data at the mid-pool gage location at Sabula, IA, this gage was not included in the analysis for 2009 - 2020. To understand the effect of excluding data from the mid-pool gage on modeled...
