Operational hydrology report (OHR), 50. Manual on Low-flow Estimation and Prediction
The Manual's objective is to publish state-of-the-art analytical procedures for estimating and predicting low river flows at all sites, regardless of the availability of observational data. The Manual wil be useful for many applications, including water resources planning, effluent dilution estimates and water resources management during low-flow conditions.

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 49. Guidelines on the role, operation and management of National Hydrological Services
Providing guidance to the senior managers of Hydrological Services, on the key issues they might face, as they lead, manage and administer their services. All aspects of management are reviewed: strategic planning, human resources management, financial management, marketing, asset management, process and quality management, relationships with other institutions. This publication is especially important at a time when NHSs worldwide are typically having their mandate expanded from basic hydrology to hydrology in the broader context of sustainable water resources management.

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 45. Contaminants in rivers and streams: prediction of travel time and longitudinal dispersion
This publication discusses the theory of movement and dispersion of dissolved pollutants and introduces the unit-peak concentration concept. A summary of the methods used to collect time-of-travel information is given, along with a summary of the data used in the report. Methods are recommended for estimating the rate of movement and attenuation of conservative pollutants based on an analysis of the data.

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 38. Simulated real-time intercomparison of hydrological models
This report presents essential elements of the history, design, implementation and results of the WMO project on the simulated real-time intercomparison of hydrological models. The aims of the project included a study to compare the abilities of both rainfall-runoff and snowmelt-runoff models to forecast stream flow under simulated real-time conditions and to report on case studies, thus offering guidance through demonstrations of the models' abilities in various situations. Fourteen models were used in the intercomparison which took place during a workshop held in Vancouver, Canada, in 1987.< ...
