Generalized peak skew coefficients for Oklahoma, 1961-1990 base period.

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. This digital-map data set consists of a grid of generalized skew coefficients of logarithms of annual maximum streamflow for Oklahoma streams less than or equal to 2,510 square miles in drainage area. This grid of skew coefficients is taken from figure 11 of the Tortorelli and Bergman, 1985 report, "Techniques for estimating flood peak discharges for unregulated streams and streams regulated by small floodwater retarding structures...
