2. Stream gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_gauge

   A stream gauge, streamgage or stream gauging station is a location used by hydrologists or environmental scientists to monitor and test terrestrial bodies of water. Hydrometric measurements of water level surface elevation (" stage ") and/or volumetric discharge (flow) are generally taken and observations of biota and water quality may also be ...

3. Parshall flume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parshall_flume

   Kilpatrick notes that the discharge for this modification of the Parshall flume is slightly greater than for a standard Parshall flume of the same size. [29] This has been attributed to potential manufacturing tolerance variations rather than the actual operation of the flume itself and users are cautioned to verify the flume's dimensions ...

4. Staff gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staff_gauge

   A staff gauge or head gauge is calibrated scale which is used to provide a visual indication of liquid level. When installed perpendicular to an inclined or sloped surface, a staff gauge is usually calibrated so that the indicated level is the true vertical level .

5. Rating curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rating_curve

   where and are rating curve constants, and is a constant which represents the gauge reading corresponding to zero discharge. The constant a {\displaystyle a} can be measured when a stream is flowing under "section control" as the surveyed gauge height of the lowest point of the section control feature.

6. Flood stage - Wikipedia

   Example graph of stream stages showing Action Stage, Flood Stage, Moderate Stage, Major Stage, and Record Stage on a river.. Flood stage is the water level, as read by a stream gauge or tide gauge, for a body of water at a particular location, measured from the level at which a body of water threatens lives, property, commerce, or travel.

   Water containers nearby were empty. Abruzzo cradled his delivery, a 10-week-old Boston terrier that had made its way from an Indiana breeder to a broker, then to a crate inside his transport van.

9. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

   This is the most commonly used measurement system for measuring water supply in houses. The fluid, most commonly water, enters in one side of the meter and strikes the nutating disk, which is eccentrically mounted. The disk must then "wobble" or nutate about the vertical axis, since the bottom and the top of the disk remain in contact with the ...
