  1. 1
    • : the water that flows in a specific stream site, especially its volume and rate of flow.

Examples

  • The precipitation post drought was similar to predrought precipitation, and the water isn’t ending up in the streamflow, so it must be going somewhere else.

  • Increased streamflow also enhances electricity generation from hydropower plants, offsetting use of fossil fuels to produce electricity and contributing to state greenhouse gas reduction initiatives.

  • The key to the entire problem lay in streamflow forecasting.

  • Upon those readings had been based the crude, wide-margin streamflow forecasts for the coming year.
