Short summary
It’s difficult to estimate the daily discharge of a river when only one instantaneous level record is available per day. This work proposes to estimate synthetic daily rating curves from nearby gauged locations using a rainfall-runoff model and bayesian inference. The results can help provide a more comprehensive understanding of the hydrological functioning of systems where only one instantaneous stage level per day is available.
