Gaging Stations

The U.S. Geological Survey maintains monitoring stations that   measure the volume of water in streams, rivers and lakes.  The table below presents waterflow statistics for the streams and rivers that feed Mark Twain Lake. The data includes how long the station has been in place, along with historical (minimum, mean, maximum), and how often flows have exceeded the mean) and current data (as of April 5, 2004), in cubic feet per second. Daily flow rates can be accessed at: http://mo.water.usgs.gov/
