Catchment Transit Time Analysis

Catchment Transit Time Analysis is a hydrological method that characterizes the distribution of time water parcels spend within a catchment before emerging as streamflow, distinguished by its integration of stable isotope tracers to infer flow pathways and storage dynamics.
