Resource Abstract:
- description: Heavy rainfall occurred across Louisiana during March 8-19, 2016, as a result of a massive, slow-moving southward
dip in the jet stream, which moved eastward across Mexico, then neared the Gulf Coast, funneling deep tropical moisture into
parts of the Gulf States and the Mississippi River Valley. The storm caused major flooding in north-central and southeastern
Louisiana. Digital flood-inundation maps for a 20.1-mile reach within the community of Minden near Lake Bistineau in Bossier
Parish and Bienville Parish, LA was created by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) to support response and recovery operations following a March 8-19, 2016 flood event. The inundation maps depict
estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to 5 high-water marks (HWM) identified and surveyed by the
USGS following the flood event.; abstract: Heavy rainfall occurred across Louisiana during March 8-19, 2016, as a result of
