Abstract
Late in 1948, the Weather Bureau, United States Department of Commerce, developed an electronic device for stream-flow routing2•3 that has proved to be highly effective in the preparation of river stage forecasts. Although originally designed for routing flows from point to point along a stream, subsequent studies indicate that the equipment is equally applicable to the direct routing of effective rainfall (runoff) over relatively large basins. This application of the flow analog and the conditions under which the original circuit fails to provide a satisfactory reproduction of the outflow hydrograph are discussed in this paper. The basis for the circuit employed in the analog and the method of operating the equipment are also discussed briefly.
