Method for estimating discharge, hydraulic depth, and mean velocity in rivers through spatial interpolation of at-a-station hydraulic geometry in data- scarce regions [PDF]
MethodsXReliable discharge estimation is essential for water resource management, yet many regions lack sufficient hydrological stations. To address this limitation, we propose the Spatial Hydraulic Geometry Interpolation (SHGI) method, which estimates discharge
