<strong>Storm</strong> Factors Impacting <strong>Stream</strong>flow<br />
Increase Intensity, Duration, Amount:<br />
All these increase discharge.<br />
Increase storm intensity increases peak discharge<br />
(precipitation exceeds infiltration rate) because surface<br />
runoff reaches the stream before subsurface <strong>flows</strong><br />
<strong>Storm</strong> movement or distribution:<br />
<strong>Storm</strong>s that proceed from upper reaches of<br />
watershed to lower increase peak <strong>flows</strong>
