Abstract:
The Flow Persistence (FlowPer) model produces an indicator that summarizes the relationship between rainfall and river flow and current (today) with previous (yesterday) river flow. The flow persistence value can indicate how well the watershed is buffering rainfall and thus avoiding flash floods. Flow persistence values of above 0.8 may reflect good watershed conditions, while values below 0.4 indicate a poorly buffered watershed. The values can be used as a basis for conditional environmental services’ rewards.
