Flow occurs across a continuum of variability, and we recognise distinct flow phases in the long-term flow regime of the Barwon–Darling River system:
-
the flood phase where the water level is high enough to inundate high level channels, floodplain waterbodies, and even the floodplain proper
-
the flow phase, determined by the passage of flow pulses of varying magnitude and duration, where sections of the channel are connected by flowing water
-
the disconnected or low-flow phase where there is either no flow along a connected channel or water is restricted to
disconnected sections of river channel, refugial waterholes and pools.
