      <abstract>This page contains steady-state and unsteady-state one-dimensional (1D) Hydrologic Engineering Center – River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) models (version 5.0.7) for the Maumee River. The upstream end of the model domain (0.0 river kilometers) is located 280 meters downstream from Independence Dam near Defiance, Ohio, and the downstream end of the model domain is the mouth of the Maumee River at Lake Erie near the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) tidal gage 9063085 (95.6 river kilometers). The models projected coordinate system is in the North American Datum of 1983 State Plane Coordinate System for Ohio North (U.S. feet).

The steady-state HEC-RAS model uses event-based peak streamflow values from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamgage 04192500 Maumee River near Defiance, Ohio, and a range of predetermined steady-state flow conditions for the upstream boundary conditions. The NOAA tidal gage 9063085 is used for the downstream boundary condition as the daily median tidal stage derived from a daily stage duration (September 19, 1995, to March 31, 2021). The model uses a drainage area approach to account for tributary inflows. The model was calibrated to two high-water events using the USGS streamgage 04193500 and three temporary USGS stage gages: USGS 411731084164800 Maumee River near Independence, Ohio, USGS 412449083513600 Maumee River below Bridge St at Grand Rapids, Ohio, and USGS 412837083445500 Maumee River at Missionary Island near Waterville, Ohio. The calibrated HEC-RAS model was used to simulate 10 steady-state flow conditions of: 500 cubic feet per second (cfs), 1,000 cfs, 5,000 cfs, 10,000 cfs, 15,000 cfs, 20,000 cfs, 25,000 cfs, 35,000 cfs, 65,000 cfs, and 100,000 cfs in reference to the USGS streamgage 04192500 Maumee River near Defiance, Ohio. These steady-state HEC-RAS simulations provided hydraulic inputs for FluEgg simulations.

The unsteady-state HEC-RAS model uses the USGS streamgage 04192500 Maumee River near Defiance, Ohio, for the upstream boundary conditions and the USGS streamgage 04193500 Maumee River at Waterville, Ohio, for tributary inflows. The NOAA tidal gage 9063085 is used for the downstream boundary conditions. The model was calibrated to three high-water events using the USGS streamgage 04193500 and three temporary USGS stage gages: USGS 411731084164800 Maumee River near Independence, Ohio, USGS 412449083513600 Maumee River below Bridge St at Grand Rapids, Ohio, and USGS 412837083445500 Maumee River at Missionary Island near Waterville, Ohio. The calibrated HEC-RAS model was used to simulate hydraulic data for FluEgg event simulations.

      <purpose>These data were generated to support an analysis of spawning locations and optimal spawning conditions for invasive carp in the Maumee River. These data also can support the development of an individual-based bioenergetics model for invasive carps in the Maumee River by collaborators in the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration.</purpose>

      <current>The HEC-RAS models represent steady-state (unchanging) flow conditions in the Maumee River and unsteady-state flow conditions which represents a specific duration in time. The HEC-RAS models used to generate the hydraulic inputs to FluEgg was developed using bathymetric data collected in 2019 and a digital elevation model derived from lidar collected by the Ohio Statewide Imagery Program in 2006.</current>

    <attracc>
      <attraccr>The HEC–RAS models were calibrated primarily to observed streamflow-stage measurements. Model calibration was completed by adjusting n-values until the results of the hydraulic computations closely agreed with the observed water-surface elevations for given flows at the Maumee River USGS streamgage locations. The differences between observed and simulated water-surface elevations were less than 1 foot. The results demonstrate that the models can simulate accurate water levels throughout the reach.</attraccr>

        <procdesc>Steady-state hydraulic simulations of the Maumee River were run for the following 10 flow conditions: 500 cfs, 1,000 cfs, 5,000 cfs, 10,000 cfs, 15,000 cfs, 20,000 cfs, 25,000 cfs, 35,000 cfs, 65,000 cfs, and 100,000 cfs at the USGS streamgage 04192500 - Maumee River near Defiance Ohio. The hydraulic parameters needed for the FluEgg simulations (depth, discharge, velocity, and shear velocity) were exported from the hydraulic model to comma-separated values (CSV) files for each of the eight steady flow conditions. These CSV files can be found in the Model Archive and Results for Steady Simulations of Egg and Larval Drift in the Maumee River, Ohio, child item of this data release. Additionally, the Maumee River centerline representing the model domain was exported from the hydraulic model as a KML file.</procdesc>
