Abstract
A method of flood routing is described herein, the successful use of which depends only upon the availability of dependable stream-flow records during a typical flood at various points on the main stream or on the tributaries whose flow is to be routed downstream. No cross sections of stream channel or velocities of flow are required. Nor are discharge records on all of the tributaries needed. A hydrograph of inflow from the unmeasured area is directly computed. This flow and that at each of the upstream stations is then routed downstream.
