Introduction
Unlike other Middle East countries, Iraq has generous
water resources originating in the upper drainage basins of
the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in Iraq and its neighboring
countries of Turkey, Iran, and Syria. These water resources
coupled with good riparian soils have resulted in an
agriculturally centered population in Iraq. According to the
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), agriculture is the
second largest component of Iraqs gross domestic product
(GDP) and an important part of the social structure of rural
communities (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2009). About
60 percent of arable land in Iraq is under cultivation and
one-fourth of the entire Iraqi workforce is employed in the
agricultural sector (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2009).
Although the natural water resources generally are sufficient,
Iraq still imports the vast majority of its foodstuffs because
of inefficient and, in some cases, environmentally harmful
farming practices (Food and Agriculture Organization of the
United Nations, 2010). Thus, support and development of the
agricultural sector in Iraq is critical for improving economic
stability. The strong connection between water resources and
agricultural production and improved decision support systems
for managing water resources could enable the agricultural
sector to develop beyond its current status. This development

in turn could lead to increased job opportunities and a
reduction in Iraqs current need for importing foodstuffs.
Water supplies from the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers have
decreased significantly over the past several decades (Ministry
of Irrigation, 1958, 1959, and 1976). This decreasing trend
is expected to continue as a result of upstream development
in Turkey, Syria, and Iran, as well as the possible effects of
climate change and increased drought periods on regional
hydrology. As these traditional sources of water in Iraq
decrease, use of the remaining resource will need to be
optimized and new sources of water will need to be developed.
Methods for optimizing existing water resources include the
development of decision support systems that take advantage
of accurate and real-time hydrologic data. Because some water
supplies in Iraq originate in high elevation mountainous areas
in Turkey, Iran, and Iraq, developing methods to estimate
the snowpack in a given year and to forecast runoff would
allow better management of dams and reservoirs in Iraq as
facility operators balance demands for irrigation water with
hydroelectric generation and flood control concerns. A system
that predicts runoff and provides real-time information on
inflows, outflows, and water quality from Iraqs complex
system of dams, barrages, and irrigation canals would
optimize the utilization of surface waters for agricultural
needs, hydroelectric generation, and public water supplies.
Knowledge of the magnitude and time distribution of
streamflow is essential for all aspects of water management
and environmental planning. Agencies responsible for
the development and management of Iraqs surface-water
resources can use this knowledge for making safe, economical,
and environmentally sound water-resource planning decisions.
To provide the Iraqi managers with necessary streamflow
information, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with
the Ministry of Water Resources (MoWR) and Ministry of
Agriculture Water Resources (MoAWR) under the auspices of
the U.S. Department of Defense, Task Force for Business and
Stability Operations, computed streamflow statistics for data
collected at long-term streamflow-gaging stations in the Tigris
River and Euphrates River Basins.
The purpose of this report is to provide summaries of
streamflow characteristics for all long-term streamflow-gaging
stations in the Tigris River and Euphrates River Basins. The
long-term streamflow-gaging stations used in this report are
listed in table 1 and the locations are shown in figure 1.

History of Streamflow-Gaging Station

Program
Daily streamflow data were provided by the Ministry
of Irrigation (1958, 1959, and 1976) of the Government of
Iraq. Most of the data available from 1959 to 2005 were
based on recorded gage heights at or near river staff gages
on the riverbank, mounted either on a post or on bridge
piers or on masonry steps constructed specifically for this
purpose. Periodic measurements of stream discharge were
used to develop rating curves or tables that were used to
convert recorded gage heights to discharge. Prior to 1959,
measuring facilities varied from station to station and included
cableways, boats, and bridges. Discharge measurements
generally were made at 10-m intervals across the stream, at
0.5-m water depth, taking about 3 minutes to measure at each
10-m interval. At the smaller rivers, the interval was reduced
to less than 10 m. The spacing of vertical sections generally
resulted in about 20 sections at medium and high stages;
however, at low stages, the number of sections was reduced,
sometimes as low as 10 sections. A coefficient of 0.98 was
applied to the observed velocity to obtain the mean in the
vertical (Ministry of Irrigation, 1958, 1959, and 1976). The
frequency of discharge measurements made varied at each
station and depended on factors such as the stability of the
channel and the accessibility of the station.

location, gage information, general description of records,
period of record, and drainage area when available. This
information is compiled from records maintained by Ministry
of Irrigation of the Government of Iraq. The following
comments clarify information presented under the various
headings of the station manuscript.
LOCATION: Information about the location of the
streamflow-gaging station primarily is limited to latitude and
longitude.

reports provided by the Iraqi government.
PERIOD OF RECORD: The period of record is the period for
which published records for the streamflow-gaging station are
available.

the datum of the gage refers to a standard datum, and general
description of the method used to measure discharge.
RECORD: The quality of the discharge measurement is
explained.
Methods
Statistics of Monthly and Annual Mean Data
Statistics of monthly and annual mean discharges
presented for each gaging station include (1) the maximum,
minimum, and mean monthly discharges and (2) the
maximum, minimum, and mean annual discharges. The
water years in which the maximum (October 1 through
September30) and minimum discharges (April 1 through
March 31) occurred are listed with the respective values,
and the standard deviation and coefficient of variation of
the monthly and annual mean discharges are listed with the
respective values. The percentage of the annual discharge that
occurs each month is listed in the table for each station.
The method for computing the monthly and annual mean
discharges can be illustrated by using the data for one of the
gaging stations, Tigris River at Baghdad (IRQ_T18), as an
example. Each monthly mean is the mean of the daily values
for that month. Months or years for which all daily values are
not available are not included in the compilation of statistics.
The maximum monthly mean discharge is the maximum
value of all monthly mean values for a given month for the
period of record. For example, the maximum mean value
Methods5
during October for the Tigris River at Baghdad (IRQ_T18)
is 1,685.0m3/s (water year 1989). Similarly, the minimum
monthly mean discharge is the minimum value of all monthly
mean values. The minimum mean value during October for
the Tigris River at Baghdad (IRQ_T18) is 180.50m3/s (water
year 1956). The maximum and minimum monthly mean
values can be found in the statistics of the monthly and annual
mean discharges table or by searching the monthly and annual
mean discharges tables for each station. The mean monthly
discharge is the mean of all the monthly mean discharges
for a given month for the period of record, and the standard
deviation is a measure of the variability of the values. The
mean monthly discharge for the Tigris River at Baghdad
(IRQ_T18) is 411.35 m3/s for October, and the standard
deviation is 234.52 m3/s. The mean monthly discharge for
October is the same as the mean of all October daily values
for the period of record used. The coefficient of variation is
the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean. The coefficient
of variation is a dimensionless measure of the spread of the
values. Because monthly mean discharges are much greater
in spring than in winter, the standard deviations also are
much greater in spring than in winter. Using the coefficient of
variation tends to equalize the measure of spread of values for
all months so a more meaningful comparison among months
can be made.
The percentage of the annual discharge is the percent of
the annual discharge that occurred during each month. It is
calculated by dividing the mean discharge for the month by
the total of the 12 monthly mean discharges and multiplying
by 100. Because of rounding of the monthly percentage, the
sum of the 12 percentages may not equal 100 percent.
The maximum, minimum, and mean annual discharges
are computed from the annual mean discharges for the period
of record, using mathematical computations. The water years
of occurrence of the maximum and minimum values are
listed with the respective values, and the standard deviation
of the mean of the annual mean values is listed with the mean
value. The maximum annual mean discharge for the Tigris
River at Baghdad (IRQ_T18) was 1,815.49 m3/s in 1954,
and the minimum annual mean discharge was 393.14 m3/s in
2001. The mean annual discharge for the period of record is
1,019.73m3/s.
Monthly and Annual Flow Duration

The monthly and annual flow duration table represents
how frequently particular values of daily mean discharge
were exceeded over the period of data collection. Flow
duration data are computed by tabulating the number of daily
mean discharge values that fall within pre-selected class
limits, computing the percentage of values in each class, and
interpolating discharge values for the percentages shown in the
table. Monthly flow duration values are calculated from daily
values in all complete months in the record, and annual figures
are calculated for all complete water years. For example, if

the 90-percent flow duration value for October is 221.50 m3/s,
then 90 percent of all October daily discharge values for the
period of record are greater than 221.50 m3/s.
Probability of Occurrence of High or Low

Discharges
High- and low-flow frequency data show the exceedance
probability of maximum mean discharge and non-exceedance
probability of minimum mean discharge computed over
selected numbers of consecutive days. For example, an annual
3-day high flow is the largest value of mean discharge over
any consecutive 3-day period during the water year. For
high-flow frequency computations, the water year is selected
to help ensure that the largest 3-day mean flow will not span
two water years. Because high flows are uncommon in the
SeptemberOctober period, the water year used for high-flow
frequency computations is October 1 through September 30.
Likewise, an annual 15-day low flow is the smallest mean
discharge for any consecutive 15-day period during a water
year. Because low flows are uncommon during the spring, the
water year for low-flow frequency computations is April 1
through March 31.
The exceedance probabilities of annual high flows
and the non-exceedance probabilities of annual low flows
are determined by fitting a log Pearson Type 3 probability
distribution to the annual high- or low-flow series. The highflow series used for this study were the annual 3-, 7-, 15-, and
30-day maximum discharges, and the low-flow series were
the annual 3-, 7-, 15-, 30-, 60-, 90-, and 183-day minimum
discharges. Exceedance probabilities were used to characterize
the high-flow data, and non-exceedance probabilities (1minus
exceedance probability) were used to characterize the lowflow data. On this basis, small exceedance probabilities are
associated with large (rare) maximum discharges, and small
non-exceedance probabilities are associated with small (rare)
minimum discharges. Recurrence interval, which is the
average length of time between exceedance of a high flow and
non-exceedance of a low flow, is another way of expressing
annual exceedance or non-exceedance probability. Recurrence
interval is the reciprocal of exceedance or non-exceedance
probability. Thus, for example, a 3-day high flow with an
annual exceedance probability of 0.10 has a 10-percent chance
of being exceeded in a given year and has a recurrence interval
of 10 years.
Although high- and low-flow frequency are both affected
by the watershed changes and processes, low-flow frequency
particularly is sensitive to natural-channel processes, such
as evapotranspiration, and human-induced hydrologic
modifications, such as the operation of many small waterstorage reservoirs; the effects of surface-water withdrawal for
agricultural, municipal, and industrial use; and the effects of
return flow to the river.

TIGRIS RIVER AT PAISH KHABUR-TUSAN (IRQ_T1)
(U.S. Geological Survey identification number: 37040004223000)
LOCATION: Latitude 37 04 00 N, Longitude 42 23 00 E.
DRAINAGE AREA: 46,700 square kilometers.
PERIOD OF RECORD: January 1958 to September 1975.
GAGE: Gage is located on the left bank immediately downstream of Paish Khabur village. The automatic water stage recorder
and the staff gage are on the right bank at the Tusan station. A correction of 324.76 meters must be added to the gage reading
to convert to GTS datum. The streamflow-gaging station was moved in 1957 to Tusan, 8 km downstream of the Paish Khabur
Station. Tusan is located at Latitude 37 04 00 N, Longitude 42 28 00 E.
ANNUAL MEAN DISCHARGE, IN CUBIC METERS PER SECOND
RECORDS: Discharge measurements were made at Tusan from a cableway.

Khabur River at Zahkho (IRQ_T2) 13
Tigris River Basin

KHABUR RIVER AT ZAKHO (IRQ-T2)
PERIOD OF RECORD: November 1958 to September 1989.
GAGE: The staff gage is located on the left bank about 500 meters upstream of the Abbasid Bridge. The automatic water stage
recorder installed near the staff was damaged in 1962. The auxiliary staff gage is downstream at the Power House Bridge, which
is at the head of the left of the two channels round the town of Zakho. Each gage is set to an arbitrary datum.
RECORDS: Daily discharge records are excellent until 1962 and good for the rest of the period. Discharge measurements had
been made regularly until March 1962 at the recorder site from a cableway or by wading; very few observations were made after
March 1962.

Rawanduz River at Jindian (IRQ_T4) 25
Tigris River Basin

RAWANDUZ RIVER AT JINDIAN (IRQ_T4)
PERIOD OF RECORD: February 1957 to September 1975.
GAGE: The staff gage is fixed inside the well of the automatic water-stage recorder on the right bank of the Rawanduz River. An
auxiliary external staff gage consisting of a standard gage plate attached to a timber backboard mounted on a 2-inch galvanized
pipe set in concrete also is on the right bank. Gage height is set to an arbitrary datum.
RECORDS: Discharge measurements were made regularly until January 1965 from a cableway or by wading. Records show
missing discharge data because of damage to gage during 1965 to 1970 time periods.

Balikian River at Balikian (IRQ_T5) 31
Tigris River Basin

BALIKIAN RIVER AT BALIKIAN (IRQ_T5)
PERIOD OF RECORD: April 1958 to March 1974.
GAGE: The staff gage is located on the left bank of the Balikian River, 400 meters upstream of the Balikian Road Bridge and
about 3 meters upstream of the confluence of the Balikian and Ruwanduz Rivers. The gage was damaged on March 30, 1974;
therefore, data are not available after March 30, 1974.
RECORDS: Discharge measurements were made regularly until January 1965 from a cableway or by wading. Only a few
measurements were made after January 1965.

Diyala River at Derbendi-Khan (IRQ_T16) 97
Tigris River Basin

DIYALA RIVER AT DERBENDI-KHAN (IRQ_T16 )
GAGE: The staff gage known as D gage was located on the right bank of the Diyala River 900 meters downstream of the
Derbendi-Khan Dam. The gage was damaged in October 1961 and a temporary gage, gage E, was installed 1 kilometer
downstream of gage D. In May 1975, a permanent gage was installed upstream of gage E.
RECORDS: From gage D until 1961, the discharge measurements were made regularly until April 1961 and the records for
that time period are considered complete. As of December 1961, the values have been taken directly from the outflow of the
Derbendi-Khan Dam.

Tigris River Basin

TIGRIS RIVER AT BAGHDAD (IRQ_T18)
PERIOD OF RECORD: March 1930 to May 2004.
GAGE: The staff gage consists of enameled iron (1 meter long) strips bolted to the vertical wall on the left bank of the Tigris
River 275 meters upstream of Al-Shohada Bridge. The gage is set to GTS datum. The automatic gage also is installed at the
same location and set to record gage heights as high as 30.20 meters.
RECORDS: Discharge records are missing data from October 1995 to September 2000. Discharge measurements are made
frequently from a boat attached to a permanent overhead cable. Discharge measurements are excellent.

Euphrates River at Hit (IRQ_E2) 133

EUPHRATES RIVER AT HIT (IRQ_E2)
PERIOD OF RECORD: October 1932 to May 1997.
GAGE: The 1928 masonry step gage is located on the right bank of the Euphrates River 300 meters downstream of the former
1923 staff gage, which was located near Hit Sarai. The gage is set to the GTS datum.
RECORDS: Discharge records are missing data for water year 1988 (October through May, and August and September), and
water year 1992. Until April 1968 when the cable was damaged, discharge measurements were made regularly by boat attached
to a permanent overhead cable 3 kilometers downstream of the town of Hit. In 1973, a new cableway was installed at Hit and
measurements were made regularly thereafter.

Euphrates River Downstream of Hindiya Barrage (IRQ_E3) 139

EUPHRATES RIVER DOWNSTREAM OF HINDIYA BARRAGE (IRQ_E3)
PERIOD OF RECORD: February 1930 to September 1999.
GAGE: The staff is located on the left bank of the Euphrates River. Discharge measurements are made from a boat attached to a
permanent stag line 2 kilometers downstream of Hindiya Barrage. The gage is set to the GTS datum.
RECORDS: Discharge records are missing data for water years 1987 and 1990. Discharge measurements are considered to be
fair because they are affected by the operation of the barrage.

Data Considerations
References Cited
The reliability of statistical data is related to the length

of record for a stream. The Hydrology Subcommittee of
the Interagency Advisory Committee on Water Data (1982)
recommends that at least 10 years of the records be used for
computing flood frequency estimates. Ordinarily, the length of
record criterion for inclusion of a streamflow-gaging station is
at least 10 years. However, the record length for streamflowgaging stations in Iraq can vary substantially. The 10-year
requirement was not applied to all streamflow-gaging stations,
so that statistics could be computed for those stations not
meeting the 10-year requirement for length of record.
