How River Discharge and Water Level Interact

River discharge and water level are closely linked, with water level determining the river’s cross-sectional area and flow velocity, both of which influence discharge. This relationship, captured by stage-discharge curves, is crucial for flood forecasting, water management, and river engineering.
