  2. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A stream hydrograph is commonly determining the influence of different hydrologic processes on discharge from the subject catchment. Because the timing, magnitude, and duration of groundwater return flow differs so greatly from that of direct runoff, separating and understanding the influence of these distinct processes is key to analyzing and simulating the likely hydrologic effects of ...

  3. Hydrographic survey - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrographic_survey

    This method revolutionized hydrographic surveying, as it allowed a quicker, less laborious, and far more complete survey of an area than did the use of lead lines and sounding poles. From a navigational safety point of view, a wire-drag survey would not miss a hazard to navigation that projected above the drag wire depth.

  4. Hydrography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrography

    Table of geography, hydrography, and navigation, from a 1728 Cyclopaedia.. Hydrography is the branch of applied sciences which deals with the measurement and description of the physical features of oceans, seas, coastal areas, lakes and rivers, as well as with the prediction of their change over time, for the primary purpose of safety of navigation and in support of all other marine activities ...

  5. Streamflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streamflow

    Plotted on a graph, these data from the unit hydrograph for that storm, which represents the runoff added to the pre-storm baseflow. To forecast the flows in a large drainage basin using the unit hydrograph method would be difficult because in a large basin geographic conditions may vary significantly from one part of the basin to another. This ...

  6. List of graphical methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_graphical_methods

    This is a list of graphical methods with a mathematical basis. Included are diagram techniques, chart techniques, plot techniques, and other forms of visualization . There is also a list of computer graphics and descriptive geometry topics .

  7. Flow visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_visualization

    In scientific visualization flows are visualized with two main methods: Analytical methods that analyse a given flow and show properties like streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines. The flow can either be given in a finite representation or as a smooth function. Texture advection methods that "bend" textures (or images) according to the flow ...

  8. Routing (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_(hydrology)

    Flood routing is a procedure to determine the time and magnitude of flow (i.e., the flow hydrograph) at a point on a watercourse from known or assumed hydrographs at one or more points upstream. The procedure is specifically known as Flood routing, if the flow is a flood. [14] [15] After Routing, the peak gets attenuated & a time lag is ...

  9. Stiff diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stiff_diagram

    Example of a Stiff diagram. A typical Stiff diagram is shown in the figure (right). By standard convention, Stiff diagrams are created by plotting the equivalent concentration of the cations to the left of the center axis and anions to the right. The points are connected to form the figure.
