Abstract
In this paper a method is demonstrated by which the hydrological characteristics of a river basin are computed from a knowledge of added bomb-produced tritium in precipitation and tritium in run-off. It is also demonstrated that the hydrological characteristics thus computed agree well with the physiography and geology of the basin. DOI: 10.1111/j.2153-3490.1963.tb01391.xKeywords
