Preliminary evaluation of magnitude and frequency of floods in selected small drainage basins in Ohio
J.R. Kolva
1985, Open-File Report 85-194
A previous study of flood magitudes and frequencies in Ohio concluded that existing regionalized flood equations may not be adequate for estimating peak flows in small basins that are heavily forested, surface mined, or located in northwestern Ohio. In order to provide a large data base for improving estimation of flood...
