Flood Pulse Variability

Flood Pulse Variability is a hydrological construct that characterizes the temporal and spatial fluctuations in the magnitude, duration, frequency, and timing of flood pulses within river-floodplain systems, distinguishing it from static or periodic hydrological models by emphasizing irregular and dynamic flow patterns as a driver of ecological processes.
