Document Title: Methods Used to Compute Low-Flow Frequency Characteristics for Continuous-Record Streamflow Stations in Minnesota, 2006
Date Issued: 2007
Description: The 1-, 7-, and 30-day low-flow series were determined for 120 continuous-record streamflow stations in Minnesota having at least 20 years of continuous record. The 2-, 5-, 10-, 50-, and 100‑year statistics were determined for each series by fitting a log Pearson type III distribution to the data. The methods used to determine the low-flow statistics and to construct the plots of the low-flow frequency curves are described. The low-flow series and the low-flow statistics are presented in tables and graphs.
