Water Resources Data, Hawaii and other Pacific Areas, Water Year 1988: Volume 2. Guam; Northern Mariana Islands; Federated States of Micronesia; Palau; and American Samoa

Volume 2 of water resources data for the 1988 water year for other Pacific areas consists of records of streamflow and stage of a lake and a reservoir; and water levels and water quality in wells. This report contains discharge records for 27 gaging stations; stage only record for 2 gaging stations; water temperature for 26 gaging stations; and water levels for 36 observations wells and water quality for 101 groundwater sites. Also included are 15 low-flow and 2 crest-stage partial-record stations,. Additional water data were collected at various sites, not part of the systematic data collection program, and are published as miscellaneous measurements. These data represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating Governments and Federal agencies in other Pacific areas.

An analysis of the magnitude and frequency of floods on Oahu, Hawaii

An analysis of available peak-flow data for the island of Oahu, Hawaii, was made by using multiple regression techniques which related flood-frequency data to basin and climatic characteristics for 74 gaging stations on Oahu. In the analysis, several different groupings of stations were investigated, including divisions by geographic location and size of drainage area. The grouping consisting of two leeward divisions and one windward division produced the best results. Drainage basins ranged in area from 0.03 to 45.7 square miles. Equations relating flood magnitudes of selected frequencies to basin characteristics were developed for the three divisions of Oahu. These equations can be used to estimate the magnitude and frequency of floods for any site, gaged or ungaged, for any desired recurrence interval from 2 to 100 years. Data on basin characteristics, flood magnitudes for various recurrence intervals from individual station-frequency curves, and computed flood magnitudes by use of the regression equation are tabulated to provide the needed data.
