The bathymetric surveys for this study were carried out from October 15, 2019, to December 12, 2019, using a manually operated, boat-mounted, single-beam echo sounder integrated with a Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receiver. Topographic surveys were carried out during the same time period using RTK GNSS to collect elevation data at and above the water surface and up to the elevation of the dam or spillway at the time of the surveys. The topographic and bathymetric datasets were imported into Esri ArcMap 10.7.1.
