Variability in Canadian Seasonal Streamflow Information and Its Implication for Hydrometric Network Design

Hydrologic extremes such as severe storms, floods, and droughts are inherently seasonal in nature and remain the main concern in designing hydrometric networks. In general, hydrometric networks have been designed without paying particular attention to the effect of seasonal streamflow information (SSI) at gauging stations on the efficiency of the hydrometric networks. This paper evaluates the effect of SSI on streamflow networks based on …
