Streamflow monitoring data are needed for many new locations to tackle water problems related to climate change and other societal challenges.However, when using traditional empirical streamflow monitoring methods, it typically takes many years to establish reliable data and in particular for extreme flows that are creating increasingly severe impacts on society.This gap between increasing data needs and current monitoring capabilities calls for new monitoring methods to be developed.
