A Survey Of Water Flow In Drainage Ditches And Streams In South Central Minnesota, Clay L. Pierce, Bill Thompson

Discharge was monitored on 13 agricultural drainage ditches and 4 small rivers in south central Minnesota. Derived data were categorized by response to hydrologic events and stream order. Stream order was found to be the most reliable predictor of hydrologic event response. Peak flows in drainage ditches were found to correspond to peak flows in rivers.
