Description:
Abstract:
Swath bathymetric data of upper Englebright Lake, Yuba-Nevada Counties, California are presented. These data consist of registered 1-meter cells and a water depth for the cell. Precision and accuracy of the depth values is 0.1 m (4 in). Water depth is referenced to an elevation of 160.6 m (527.0 ft) foot, the spillway elevation of the dam. Data coverage is of the upper reach of the reservoir, over the prograding sediment delta. Coverage does not extend to the deeper downstream reach of the reservoir approaching the dam.
Purpose:
These data are intended for science researchers, policy makers, and the general public.
