        Daily River Stages is a series of historical publications archived at 
the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC).
The major parameters are daily river stages with highest stage or crest and 
date for each month, an index by stations, and miscellaneous information.
Historically, Daily River Stages was published under various names by the U.S. 
National Weather Service and its predecessors, the U.S. Weather Bureau and the 
U.S. Army Signal Corps:
1. 1858-1889, &apos;Stages of the Ohio River and of its Principal 
Tributaries&apos; (Volume 1)
2. 1860-1889, &apos;Stages of the Mississippi River and of its Principal 
Tributaries&apos; (Volume 2)
3. 1875-1889, &apos;Stages of Water at Miscellaneous River Stations in 
California, Oregon, North Carolina, etc.&apos; (Volume 3)
4. 1890-1948, &apos;Daily River Stages at River Gage Stations of the Principal 
Rivers of the United States&apos; (Volumes 4-44)
5. 1949-1971, &apos;Daily River Stages&apos; (Volumes 45-67)
