Lower Susquehanna River Hydrographic and Water Quality Study, Summer 1981: Volume I
This report presents a summary of field data collected for modeling simulations of the Susquehanna River. The modeling simulations are intended to provide information about the relationship of dissolved oxygen (DO) in the Conowingo Reservoir, and in the lower Susquehanna River, to the operation mode of the Conowingo Dam, in order to meet requirements of the operating license issued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The study objectives were to: (1) monitor water flow and DO flux in the Conowingo Reservoir, in the vicinity of Conowingo Dam and in the river downstream; (2) monitor wind-induced turnover events in the reservoir; (3) measure the effects of specific test discharges by the dam on local water flow characteristics, using current meter and dye measurements; (4) measure the flow characteristics of the river below the dam during unsteady flow conditions and during tests of feasible minimum discharges; and, (5) measure reaeration of the reservoir due to atmospheric oxygen diffusion.
