Historic perspectives- Arkansas River cross-watershed flow variability

The study presented four reconstruction estimates of Arkansas River baseflow and streamflow using a total of 78 tree-ring chronologies for three streamflow gages, geographically spanning the headwaters in Colorado to near the confluence of the Arkansas-Mississippi rivers. This information, combined with other proxy records from the Mississippi River watershed, may shed light on long-term flood risk and subsequent water management and mitigation strategies for the future.
