“… KEY POINTS:
• Standing waves in rivers indicate unique hydraulic conditions that allow depth and velocity to be inferred from the spacing of the waves
• Critical flow theory can be used to calculate discharge based on measurements of wavelength and width made using readily available images
• Discharges estimated via the critical flow approach for 82 images agreed closely with discharges recorded at gaging stations (R² = 0.98)…”
