Characterization of simple exponential baseflow recessions

The simple exponential baseflow recession equation is usually characterized by the baseflow recession constant, k. The use of a more sensitive and meaningful measure of low-flow stream behaviour is advocated, and an alternative means of characterization is derived from consideration of the time take...

Zusammenfassung:The simple exponential baseflow recession equation is usually characterized by the baseflow recession constant, k. The use of a more sensitive and meaningful measure of low-flow stream behaviour is advocated, and an alternative means of characterization is derived from consideration of the time taken for the stream discharge to halve.
