| Abstract | This paper explains the procedure used to forecast critical flow levels and the dates that these levels will occur on the Deschutes River at Bend, Oregon.It discusses the value of the forecast to water users in relation to their water rights, and the problems involved in reconstructing the streamflow hydrographs used in deriving the forecast equations.Examples of forecasted versus actual hydrographs for the past several years are included. The information is used by the watermaster and irrigation districts in managing the river and their water use. |
