Abstract: This report describes the Hydrologic Engineering Center-River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) water temperature models developed for five Missouri river reaches (e.g., Fort Peck Dam to Garrison Dam; Garrison Dam to Oahe; Fort Randall Dam to Gavins Point Dam; Gavins Point Dam to Rulo, NE; and Rulo, NE to the mouth of the Missouri River). These models were developed based on calibrated HEC-RAS flow models that the Omaha and Kansas City Districts of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) provided. Of five HEC-RAS water temperature models, three models were run for an 18-year period (1995–2012) for six alternatives in support of developing the Missouri River recovery program (MRRP) management plan (ManPlan) and environmental impact statement (EIS). The HEC-RAS water temperature model results for each river reach and each alternative are presented in this report. Likewise, the sources of model uncertainty are discussed in this report as well.
