Nibi Metrics
Real-time water levels, forecasts, and alerts for lakes and rivers across Canada and the US. Built on official government data.
Nibi Metrics turns raw gauge readings from official hydrometric networks into something a person standing on a dock can actually use: is the water high or low for today, which way is it moving, and how unusual is this? This page explains where every number on the platform comes from and what we do to it along the way.

About Kuskokwim R at Tuluksak AK
Kuskokwim River - A vital waterway in the wilderness of Alaska.
The Kuskokwim River at Tuluksak, Alaska, serves as a key feature of the local landscape, essential to the ecological and cultural fabric of the Kuskokwim Delta. This river is part of a larger system that dramatically influences the region’s hydrology, shaped by the subarctic climate.
Why the data matters here
Today's reading from the Kuskokwim River gauge is essential for understanding local water conditions. The flow measurements taken here by the U.S. Geological Survey help inform residents and stakeholders about the river's status, particularly in relation to seasonal changes and potential flooding risks.
In the subarctic region, spring breakup and snowmelt create significant flooding alongside the possibility of ice jams that can impact water flow. Understanding these patterns not only aids in recognizing potential flood risks but also informs fishing, transportation, and navigation along the waterway.
Given the river's critical role in the local ecosystem and economy, this monitoring assists in managing resources effectively. By comparing today’s reading against the median for this calendar day over the last year, users can gauge whether current conditions are higher or lower than average—a vital insight for anyone relying on the river's health and flow.
How this page is built
Readings come from official government gauges and are rolled into daily records: the daily mean, high and low for every day on record. Each calendar day gets its own baseline from the full history, so the level you see is compared against what this specific date usually looks like rather than an annual average.
