ARRArrive/ArrivalArroyoIn hydrologic terms, a water-carved channel or gully in arid country, usually rather small with steep banks, dry most of the time, due to infrequent rainfall and the shallowness of the cut which does not penetrate below the level of permanent ground water.BarrageIn hydrologic terms, any artificial obstruction placed in water to increase water level or divert it. Usually the idea is to control peak flow for later release. Barrier JetA jet-like wind current that forms when a stably-stratified low-level airflow approaches a mountain barrier and turns to the left to blow parallel to the longitudinal axis of the barrier.
Carrington LongitudeA system of fixed longitudes rotating with the sunHigh Water Arrival TimeThe time at which a stream reach is forecast to achieve its high water flow within the forecast period.Peak Flow Arrival Time (PFAT)The time at which a stream reach is forecast to achieve its maximum flow within the forecast period.Synthetic Aperture Radar River Ice Surveillance (SARRIS)An experimental river ice mapping experiment using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR).
