Stream Discharge Measurement Using a Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) Prototype [PDF]
New technologies have been developed for open-channel discharge measurement due to concerns about costs, accuracy, and safety of traditional methods. One emerging technology is large-scale particle image velocimetry (LSPIV). LSPIV is capable of measuring surface velocity by analyzing recorded images of particles added to the stream surface.

A Perspective of Surge Dynamics in Natural Debris Flows Through Pulse‐Doppler Radar Observations
Abstract As a consequence of their natural occurrence and the frequent formation of multiple surges with high sediment loads, debris flows are considered one of the most hazardous gravity‐driven mass movements in mountain regions. Field measurements of surge dynamics are an essential link in the chain of understanding fundamental process dynamics and ...

Uncertainties in measuring and estimating water‐budget components: Current state of the science
Water budget data come in a range of spatial and temporal scales and uncertainty levels. In general, point measurements are more certain, and areal estimates which are required for water budgets have higher uncertainty. Data for subsurface storage and fluxes of water have the poorest spatially explicit data availability and highest uncertainty among ...

RivQNet: Deep Learning Based River Discharge Estimation Using Close‐Range Water Surface Imagery
Abstract Streamflow data is often the most critical input for hydrologic and hydraulic research, modeling, and design studies. Streamflow measurement using close range non‐contact sensing such as image velocimetry is a new technique that is yet far from maturity.

Moving Aircraft River Velocimetry (MARV): Framework and Proof‐of‐Concept on the Tanana River
Abstract Information on velocity fields in rivers is critical for designing infrastructure, modeling contaminant transport, and assessing habitat. Although non‐contact approaches to measuring flow velocity are well established, these methods assume a stationary imaging platform.

Fish Passage and Abundance around Grade Control Structures on Incised Streams [PDF]
This paper summarizes research from separate studies of fish passage over weirs (Larson et al., 2004; Litvan, 2006; Litvan, et al., 2008a-c) and weir hydraulics (Papanicolaou and Dermisis, 2006; Papanicolaou and Dermisis, in press).
