Barker Reservoir, located in Addicks, Texas, was constructed in the 1940s by the US Army Corps of Engineers to control flooding in the Buffalo Bayou watershed.
The hydrology of the reservoir is mainly influenced by rainfall and the flow of water from upstream. The reservoir has a capacity of 205,000 acre-feet and covers an area of 26,000 acres. The surface flow of water in the reservoir is mainly provided by the Buffalo Bayou, which is a primary source of drinking water for the Houston metropolitan area. There is no snowpack in this region. The reservoir is primarily used for flood control, but it also serves as a source of irrigation for agricultural purposes and is a popular recreational area for fishing and boating.
