provides a qualitative picture of the entire system, but not specific
causal relationships between flows and bathymetry

Figure 2. A traditional discharge time-history plot that provides point-specific,
quantitative information, but fails at providing a picture of the flow conditions over
the entire domain (Volumetric flow rate is in cubic feet per second. To convert to
cubic meters per second, multiply by 0.3048)
