Description
Summary:This report presents details on the analysis of historical natural flows in the Athabasca River basin. Monthly flows are provided for the period 1912 to 1980 at 21 locations on the Athabasca River and its major tributaries. The flow data sets are suitable for water management planning on the scale of the Athabasca River basin. If an area is identified as having a potential water supply problem, a detailed analysis of the region, likely on a shorter time frame, should be considered.
