This classification is based on 120 metrics describing ecologically important characteristics of the natural hydrologic regime derived from discharge data for 830 stream gauges. Metrics were calculated from continuous time series (15 – 30 years of record constrained within a 36-year period) of mean daily discharge data, and classification was undertaken using a fuzzy partitional method - Bayesian mixture modeling. The hydrologic classification contains 12 distinct classes of flow regime types that differ in the seasonal pattern of discharge, degree of flow permanence (i.e. perennial versus varying degrees of intermittency), variations in flood magnitude and frequency and other aspects of flow predictability and variability. Geographic, climatic and some catchment topographic factors are generally strong discriminators of flow regime classes. The geographical distribution of flow regime classes show varying degrees of spatial cohesion, with stream gauges from certain flow regime classes often being non-contiguously distributed across the continent. The proposed hydrologic classification is expected to support the development of a greater understanding of flow-ecology relationships in Australia, and inform management efforts aimed at prescribing environmental flows for riverine restoration and protection. Funding for this project was provided by Land and Water Australia and the Tropical Rivers and Coastal Knowledge research consortium. {|‹ŒžŸАБГФХЧежзхцшщъь: A B C ž Ї Ј      9 v | } ~ † ј  З з юtuїѓьчьчьпѓьчьѓпѓьзьачѓьѓьпьѓпѓьзѓьѓьѓьѓШФРФМФРИh#Цh|qЄhu\h-uПh h 6 h…AВh h…AВh H*hдh H* h H* hdLкh h h h 5.{|шщA B І Ї   } ~ † uњњњњњњњњњњњњњњgd u§,1hАа/ Ар=!А"А# $ %ААаАа а†œ@@ёџ@ NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH Z@Z ­hю Heading 1$Є№Є<@&5CJ KH OJQJ\^JaJ DA@ђџЁD Default Paragraph FontRiѓџГR  Table Normalі4ж l4жaі (kєџС(No List4ўOђ4 ­hюStyle2 5mH sH jўOj   Char Char Char Char CharCJOJPJQJaJmH sH u џџџџ{|шщABІЇ}~†w ˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€шщABІЇ}w š@0€€€š@0€€€š@0€€€š@0€€€š@0€€€š@0€€€˜@0€€€˜@0€€€˜@0€€€Z‘00u u u №8№@ёџџџ€€€ї№’№№0№( № №№B №S №ПЫџ ?№џџ Œ\|-§\<,§Ž\М.§\<-§\<.§‘\œ† ’\† “\м† ”\‡ •\Д7§–\t9§—\є8§˜\49§™\Д8§š\є5§›\дЌО œ\‰ђ\T‰ђž\”‰ђŸ\д‰ђ \ŠђЁ\TŠђЂ\”ŠђЃ\LuМ Є\ŒuМ Ѕ\ЬuМ І\ vМ Ї\LvМ Ј\ŒvМ Љ\ЬvМ Њ\”}М Ћ\д}М %1DNlz††›гочѓ<BRRamtt' 9 9 B w      #/::JUv„™žžнцёћ  AF_kvv}}0 A H H w    9*€urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags€State€=*€urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags €PlaceType€= *€urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags €PlaceName€8*€urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags€City€B*€urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags€country-region€9*€urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags€place€  ,“      ЉЏR_N]0;w DKw 33w w х и 3…Pu\sw75…4š~kž|qЄ}ЊЂ@ЖЈ]Ж-uП•7Р#ЦSHЮущ­hю~w Uџ@`А<#Ч ѕД``u а@џџUnknownџџџџџџџџџџџџG‡z €џTimes New Roman5€Symbol3& ‡z €џArialW†SimSunArial Unicode MS"qˆ№аhA„бІA„бІi i !№ ДД24dq q  2ƒq№HX)№џ?фџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџ-uП2џџzEcohydrological classification of natural flow regimes to support environmental flow assessments: an Australian case studyJulian D.
