The three trees that were measured was the Polypous deltoid in the locations of of Lock 8 in Glenville, Stockade Park in schenectady and Glen Sanders Mansion in Scotia. At the Lock 8 the tree scar elevation was 22.5, at the Stockade riverside park the tree scars was 14ft for the first tree and 15 for the second tree. At the Glen Sanders Mansion the tree scar elevation was 17ft. In 1996 on the rising limb from the first ice jam to the second ice jam the water went from 34k cfs to0 117k cfs which was when the second ice jam outbreak occurred. The ice jam occurred in this area because of the characteristics that are present In the mohawk River. One aspect that contribute to the formation of jams are areas that are flat like the MOhawk river which prevents the free flow of water down the river. another aspect is that contributed to the flood was the Caslick drainage that cause significant discharge causing flooding. also the constriction prevented the
