Streamflow elevation profile
Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by current streamflow (x-axis) vs elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-to-bottom traces the river from headwaters down to its mouth -- you can see flow accumulate as elevation drops.

Trent River
The Trent River is a prominent waterway in Ontario, Canada. It flows for 386 kilometers, starting in the Kawartha Lakes and emptying into Lake Ontario. Historically, the river played a significant role in the early development of Canada, serving as a vital transportation and trade route. Today, it is used for hydroelectric power generation and serves as a water source for agricultural irrigation. It also supports recreational activities such as boating, fishing, and camping. The river is home to several reservoirs and dams, including the Balsam Lake Dam and the Ranney Falls Generating Station Dam. These structures help manage water levels for flood control, hydroelectric power generation, and recreational use. The Trent River is an important natural resource that continues to provide a valuable source of water and energy for Ontario.
Recreation along the Trent River
Fishing access and paddle runs Snoflo tracks within the watershed.
Track the Trent River in the Snoflo app
Set per-gauge push alerts (e.g. "alert me when flow at the Russian R Nr Healdsburg crosses 5,000 cfs"), and Snoflo's iOS app pushes the moment USGS reports the crossing.
About the Trent River
Where does the data for the Trent River come from?
Streamflow and gauge stage data are sourced from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water Information System. The aggregate flow shown at the top of the page is computed by Snoflo as the sum of all monitored gauges along the river.
How is "percent of normal" calculated?
Today's aggregate streamflow is compared to the historical average aggregate streamflow on this calendar day across the river's full record. 100% means right on average; values above 100% indicate above-normal flow (wet year); values below indicate below-normal (dry year or drought).
Why are some gauges showing very different flows?
Gauges along a river measure flow at different points: headwater gauges read what's coming off the snowpack or mountain runoff; downstream gauges integrate everything upstream, including tributary inputs. Wide spreads usually mean a tributary is contributing significantly between gauges.
What's the elevation profile chart showing?
Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by streamflow (x-axis) and elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-down traces the river from headwaters to mouth -- you can see flow build as elevation drops.
Can I get alerts when a specific gauge crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app on a per-gauge basis. Open any individual streamgauge from the table above and favorite it to set a discharge threshold.
