Abstract
  • River discharge is a fundamental hydrologic quantity that summarizes how a watershed transforms the input of precipitation into output as channelized streamflow. Accurate discharge measurements are critical for a wide range of applications including water supply, navigation, recreation, management of in-stream habitat, and prediction and monitoring of floods and droughts. However, the traditional, in situ stream gage networks that provide such data are sparse and declining, even in developed nations, and absent in many parts of the world (e.g., [1]). Moreover, establishing and maintaining these gages is expensive, labor-intensive, and can place personnel at risk (e.g., [2]).
