Lower Coquille Watershed Analysis: Overview and Hydrologic Characteristics

The Lower Coquille Watershed, located in Coos County, Oregon, encompasses a total drainage area of approximately 269.25 km². The watershed showcases a complex hydrology with multiple stream segments, including 815 first-order and 381 second-order segments, resulting in a diverse aquatic ecosystem. Key hydrologic metrics include a length/width ratio of 1.23 and an average sub-basin area of 22.43 km². This report details the watershed's physiographic features, elevation range, slope, and includes various digital elevation models, maps, and geological references to aid in watershed management and study.

The Coquille River is the major river system which includes four stems: South Fork, Middle Fork, North Fork and East Fork. They join to become the Main Stem or Lower Coquille River. Figure 1.
