“…A comparison was made with low-flow characteristics that were previously computed for the Wisconsin River basins in the 1970s and 1980s for the design of sewage-treatment plants and industrial outfalls (Gebert and Holmstrom, 1977;Gebert, 1978Gebert, , 1979aGebert, , 1979bGebert, , 1980Gebert, , 1982Holmstrom, 1978Holmstrom, , 1979aHolmstrom, , 1979bHolmstrom, , 1980aHolmstrom, , 1980bHolmstrom, , 1982Stedfast, 1979). Most of the streamflow data used in those reports were for the entire period of data at a streamflow-gaging station through the mid-1970s depending upon when the report was prepared; therefore, the low-flow characteristics in table 3 for the 1915-68 period are fairly representative of those published in these low-flow reports.…”
