- Starting baseflow (m³/s)
- 5
- Ending baseflow (m³/s)
- 6

Calculation method
Calculation method
Straight-line baseflow series (JSON)
Straight line between supplied endpoint baseflows, clipped to measured flow so direct runoff remains nonnegative.
Direct-runoff series (JSON)
Straight line between supplied endpoint baseflows, clipped to measured flow so direct runoff remains nonnegative.
Symbols and units
- a
- Observed discharge samples (m³/s)
- b
- Starting baseflow (m³/s)
- c
- Ending baseflow (m³/s)
Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.
Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- User-supplied measurements and assumptions; Straight line between supplied endpoint baseflows, clipped to measured flow so direct runoff remains nonnegative. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits.
