Trends in streamflow due to upstream land-use changes

Most streamflow records are affected to some degree by changes in man's activities in the catchment. Records displaying trends must be rendered stationary before being subjected to further analysis. With the aid of rainfall-runoff models not only can non-stationarity be detected but the cause c...

Zusammenfassung:Most streamflow records are affected to some degree by changes in man's activities in the catchment. Records displaying trends must be rendered stationary before being subjected to further analysis. With the aid of rainfall-runoff models not only can non-stationarity be detected but the cause can be identified and quantified. Moreover, the effects on streamflow of further changes of the type identified can be predicted. The influence of upstream afforestation on streamflow is illustrated by worked examples.
