Fluvial Discharge

Fluvial Discharge is the volumetric rate of water flow transported by a river through a cross-sectional area over time, distinguished from other hydrological fluxes by its origin in surface and subsurface runoff within a drainage basin and its conveyance through a fluvial system to a downstream terminus, typically a delta or ocean.
