    Kentucky, Hazard, North Fork Kentucky River
    Description

    Digital flood-inundation maps were created for a 7.1-mile reach of the North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard, Kentucky. The flood-inundation maps, which can be accessed through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Flood Inundation Mapping Science website at https://water.usgs.gov/osw/flood_inundation/, depict estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to selected water levels (stages) at the USGS streamgage on the North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard, Kentucky (USGS station number 03277500). Near-real-time stages at this streamgage may be obtained on the Internet from the USGS National Water Information System at https://waterdata.usgs.gov/ or the National Weather Service (NWS) Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service (AHPS) at https://water.weather.gov/ahps/, which also forecasts flood hydrographs at this site (NWS AHPS site HAZK2). The NWS AHPS forecast peak stage information may be used with the maps developed in this study to show predicted areas of flood inundation. ...

    Description

    Digital flood-inundation maps were created for a 7.1-mile reach of the North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard, Kentucky. The flood-inundation maps, which can be accessed through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Flood Inundation Mapping Science website at https://water.usgs.gov/osw/flood_inundation/, depict estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to selected water levels (stages) at the USGS streamgage on the North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard, Kentucky (USGS station number 03277500). Near-real-time stages at this streamgage may be obtained on the Internet from the USGS National Water Information System at https://waterdata.usgs.gov/ or the National Weather Service (NWS) Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service (AHPS) at https://water.weather.gov/ahps/, which also forecasts flood hydrographs at this site (NWS AHPS site HAZK2). The NWS AHPS forecast peak stage information may be used with the maps developed in this study to show predicted areas of flood inundation. Flood profiles were computed for the North Fork Kentucky River reach by means of a one-dimensional, step-backwater model developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The hydraulic model was calibrated by using the current stage-discharge relation (USGS rating no. 24.0) at USGS streamgage 03277500, North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard, Kentucky. The calibrated hydraulic model was then used to compute 26 water-surface profiles for flood stages at 1-foot (ft) intervals referenced to the streamgage datum and ranging from approximately bankfull (14 ft) to the highest even-foot increment stage (39 ft) of the current stage-discharge rating curve. The simulated water-surface profiles were then combined with a geographic information system digital elevation model, derived from light detection and ranging data, to delineate the area flooded at each water level. The availability of these maps, along with information on the Internet regarding current stage from the USGS streamgage at North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard, Kentucky, and forecasted stream stages from the NWS AHPS, provides emergency management personnel and residents with information that is critical for flood-response activities such as evacuations and road closures, as well as for postflood recovery efforts.

    Description

    Digital flood-inundation maps for a 3.4-mile reach of Fourmile Creek at Silver Grove, Kentucky, were created by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the City of Silver Grove and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District. Because the City of Silver Grove is subject to flooding from Fourmile Creek and the Ohio River (backwater flooding up Fourmile Creek), a set of flood-inundation maps was created for each flooding source independently and for combinations of possible flooding scenarios. The flood-inundation maps depict estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to a range of different gage heights (gage height is commonly referred to as “stage,” or the water-surface elevation at a streamgage) at the USGS streamgage on Fourmile Creek at Grays Crossing at Silver Grove, Kentucky (station number 03238785), and the USGS streamgage on Fourmile Creek at Highway 8 at Silver Grove, Kentucky (station number 03238798). Near-real-time stages at these streamgages can be obtained on the internet from the USGS National Water Information System at https://waterdata.usgs.gov/. The USGS streamgage on the Ohio River at Cincinnati, Ohio (station number 03255000) is also important in this study because the National Weather Service (NWS) Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service (AHPS), at https://water.weather.gov/ahps/, forecasts flood hydrographs for this site (NWS AHPS site CCNO1). The NWS AHPS forecast peak-stage information can be used in conjunction with the maps developed in this study to show predicted areas of flood inundation. Flood profiles were computed for the Fourmile Creek reach by means of a one-dimensional, step-backwater hydraulic model developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The hydraulic model was calibrated by using the current stage-discharge relation (USGS rating number 1.1) at USGS streamgage 03238785, Fourmile Creek at Grays Crossing at Silver Grove, Kentucky. The model was then used to compute water-surface profiles for 83 combinations of flood stages on the Ohio River and Fourmile Creek ranging from approximately baseflow to greater than a 2-percent annual exceedance probability event. An additional 50 water-surface profiles were computed for backwater-only flood profiles (from the Ohio River) for flood elevations (referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 [NAVD 88]) at 1-ft intervals referenced to USGS streamgage 03238798, Fourmile Creek at Highway 8 at Silver Grove, Kentucky, and ranged from approximately normal pool (460 ft NAVD 88) to greater than a major flood stage on the Ohio River (509 ft NAVD 88). The computed water-surface profile information was then combined with a digital elevation model derived from light detection and ranging (lidar) data to delineate the approximate areas flooded. The digital flood-inundation maps are available through the USGS Flood Inundation Mapper application (https://fim.wim.usgs.gov/fim/) that presents map libraries and provides detailed information on flood extent and depths for selected sites. The flood-inundation maps developed in this study, in conjunction with the real-time stage data from the USGS streamgages on Fourmile Creek at Silver Grove, Ky., and forecasted stream stages from the NWS AHPS, are intended to provide information that can help inform the public about potential flooding and provide emergency management personnel with a tool to efficiently manage emergency flood operations, such as evacuations and road closures, and assist in postflood recovery efforts. This metadata record is comprised of shapefiles of the flood-inundation maps for 83 combinations of flood stages on the Ohio River and Fourmile Creek ranging from approximately baseflow to greater than a 2-percent annual exceedance probability event. Flood profiles were computed for the Fourmile Creek reach by means of a one-dimensional, step-backwater hydraulic model that was calibrated by using the current stage-discharge relation at the USGS streamgage on Fourmile Creek at Grays Crossing (03238785).

    Description

    Kentucky has a diverse topography, and analysis of the similarity among biological assemblages across geographic scales can help clarify the inherent biological differences in the state. An a posterioriregional classification scheme based on river basins, physiographic regions and ecoregions has been developed (Pond et al., 2003; Pond and McMurray, 2002; Pond et al., 2000). Bioregions were established to incorporate ecoregion and river basin differences within the state and typically correspond to Level III Ecoregion boundaries (Woods et al., 2002). Due to the strong affinity between fish and river basins, bioregions for fish communities (also called Ichthyoregions) include some finer subdivisions than for macroinvertebrates, algae, and physical habitat (Compton et al., 2003). The bioregions are Mountains (MT; includes Ichthyoregion subdivision Cumberland River above Cumberland Falls, CA), Bluegrass (BG), Mississippi Valley-Interior River (MVIR), and Pennyroyal (PR; includes Ichthyoregion subdivision Upper Green River, GR). Generalized bioregion boundaries are described below. Note that in most cases bioregion boundaries do not follow stream and river networks, so these boundaries should not be considered to be precise in terms of assigning a particular stream segment location. Areas near bioregion boundaries should be examined closely to determine the appropriate classification. A description of the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of bioregions, as well as guidance for classifying sites in transitional areas can be found in KDOW’s SOP, Bioregions of Kentucky for Water Quality Assessments of Biological Integrity.Mountains (MT) and Cumberland above the Falls (CA)The Mountains bioregion includes all river systems (Big Sandy, Cumberland, Kentucky, Licking, Little Sandy and minor tributaries of the Ohio River) within the boundaries of the Western Allegheny Plateau ecoregion (70) and Central and Southwestern Appalachian ecoregions (69 and 68). Portions of the Central and Southwestern Appalachian ecoregions that are within the Cumberland River system and upstream of Cumberland Falls are categorized as a separate bioregion with respect to fish, Cumberland Above the Falls (CA).Bluegrass (BG) The Bluegrass bioregion includes all river systems (Kentucky, Licking, Salt and minor tributaries of the Ohio River) that lie within sub-ecoregions (Level IV ecoregions) 71d, 71k, and 71l of the Interior Plateau ecoregion (71).Pennyroyal (PR) and Upper Green River (GR)Includes all river systems (Cumberland, Green, Kentucky, Salt, Tradewater, Tennessee and the minor tributaries of the Ohio River) that lie within sub-ecoregions (71a, b, c, e, f, g, and h) of the Interior Plateau (71). The portion of the Green River system that falls within sub-ecoregion (Level IV ecoregion) 71g of the Interior Plateau ecoregion (71) is categorized as a separate bioregion with respect to fish, Upper Green River (GR).Mississippi Valley-Interior River (MVIR) Includes all river systems (lower Cumberland, Green, Tradewater, Tennessee, minor tributaries of the Mississippi River and minor tributaries of the Ohio River) within the boundaries of the Interior River Valleys and Hills (72), Mississippi Alluvial Plain (73), and Mississippi Valley Loess Plain (74).Transitional Areas (TR)Most boundaries between bioregions are not distinct. Watersheds or individual sites near boundaries may exhibit characteristics of more than one bioregion in these zones, or portions of these areas may be classifiable to one or another bioregion. HUC12s are marked as “Transitional” on this map where more than one bioregion is spanned by the HUC12 unit. Additionally, some HUC12 units in far western areas of the Pennyroyal bioregion, in sub-ecoregions 71a and 71f, have been marked as Transitional even though they are wholly within the Pennyroyal. These areas have been observed by KDOW to have varied stream types and some streams here are more similar to the neighboring MVIR bioregion. Assignment of watersheds or sites to bioregions in Transitional areas must be made based on examination of local features. KDOW personnel familiar with the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of bioregions make these assignments following the SOP “Bioregions of Kentucky for Water Quality Assessments of Biological Integrity “. The column “BioregDesc” in the attributes table indicates which specific bioregions are pertinent in Transitional HUC12 units.CitationsCompton, M.C., G.J. Pond, and J.F. Brumley. 2003.

    Description

    A digital dataset of the geomorphology of the Lower Mississippi River Valley in Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Mississippi was developed from Roger T. Saucier’s “Geomorphology and Quaternary Geologic History of the Lower Mississippi Valley, Volumes I and II” (1994) as part of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (MAP) Regional Water Availability Study. The maps included in the 1994 reports provide a comprehensive overview of the previously misunderstood alluvial valley geology and characterize twenty-nine Pleistocene and Holocene alluvial deposits, such as point bars, abandoned channels, backswamps, and natural levees. Each map was georeferenced to North American Datum 1983 and projected to USA Contiguous Albers Equal Conic (U.S. Geological Survey version) projection (standard parallels 29.5 and 45.5 degrees, central meridian -96 degrees, and latitude of origin 23 degrees). Once georeferenced (using ArcMap v 10.4.1), individual geomorphological features were digitized manually. Each polygon was validated using a geodatabase topology and the Topology Editor tools in ArcMap; this step was completed to create individual polygons without gaps or overlap. Efforts were made to match colors in the original map legend to the digital product, with the exception of a few features listed in the original key (for example, feature “Pve” does not match the exact color in the plates). Updated colors were selected to ease the distinction between similarly colored features. Saucier envisioned his work to be utilized by engineering geologists conducting studies that were focused at both the local and regional scale in the Lower Mississippi River Valley (Saucier, 1994). Creating a digital dataset of Saucier’s seminal geomorphological work increases the usability of the map layers for current and future scientific investigations focused on regional groundwater availability in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain.

    Description

    This contains line features for "Blue Water" trails, canoe, kayak, and small boat trails in Kentucky. The data is based on a series of press releases/articles that highlight the floating, fishing and tourism opportunities on Kentucky’s streams and rivers. The individual river lines are merged, and this is what is given to the Division of Geographic Information (DGI) for the adventure tourism site. This just contains the line from usually 24K NHD of the extent on the trail. This does not include the points of interest associated with the trail. All blue water trail maps are online at https://fw.ky.gov/Education/Pages/Blue-Water-Trails.aspxDownload: https://app.fw.ky.gov/kfwis/kygeonet/Blue_Water_Trails.zip

    Description

    description: This cover contains structure contours of the elevations of the unconformity at the Cambrian-Precambrian boundary. These data were contributed by Glenn Bear of Indiana University as part of the work on his doctoral thesis. The southern part of the map was produced by James Drahovzal of the Kentucky Geological Survey and merged with Bear's map of the rest of the map area and beyond. Use of public and proprietary seismic reflection and well data were used to define the structure. Units are in thousands of feet below sea level. A prominent east-west structure in the southern half of the map area is the western end of the Rough Creek Graben. At its deepest point the unconformity is more than 30,000 ft (9,100 m) below sea level. Faulted strata at this depth mean that the Rough Creek Fault System penetrates to hypocentral depths. At the western edge of the map area, the graben bends to the southwest into the Reelfoot Rift and becomes more shallow. North of the Rough Creek Graben, and extending northward along the Wabash River, is the Wabash Valley Fault System. This fault system cuts an elliptical low in the unconformity. Some of the structure contours show horizontal offsets at depths that are opposite to the offsets expected from the known normal slip on the faults. Some authors interpret this as evidence of strike slip motion on these faults. This cover contains all the contours including the extents outside the map area. "bcontours" is clipped to the map area.; abstract: This cover contains structure contours of the elevations of the unconformity at the Cambrian-Precambrian boundary.

    Description

    Located in Kentucky about 30 miles from where the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers join the Ohio River, the Kentucky and Barkley Dams were constructed for navigation, flood control, and hydroelectric purposes. During high water on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, these dams are able to provide some relief to the downstream flows by holding water in their flood control storage. This map displays the river gages at the dams and a couple downstream points.
