Strong winds caused substantial water surface elevation differences in Lake Erie around November 15, 2020. Here's an animated plot of elevations measured by NOAA.
Here's a time lapse I made of the Delaware River near Philadelphia. At this location the Delaware is tidal and the water surface elevation changes throughout the day. Lots of legacy submerged man-made structure here revealed at low tide. The silver cylinder near the middle is a staff gauge with 1-foot markings for reference.
Revisiting the river flow profile plot from an earlier post, the video below loops each day's flow profile for the Delaware River in 2019. Data is from USGS gages processed using R and Windows Live Movie Maker.
I am an engineer working in water resources and the environmental field. On the side, I work with small businesses to help automate their data processing functions. I offer reasonable rates and am very efficient. Send me an e-mail at JYagecic@gmail.com
