Independent original witnesses
These values are provisional USGS instantaneous discharge records. They are not simultaneous and do not represent a tracked parcel of water.
Relational investigation
Interpretation boundary: The 58 ft³/s difference is arithmetic between two measurements separated by 15 minutes at different sites. It is not a measured tributary contribution, net gain, or water travel time. Additional tributary inflows, diversions, storage, groundwater exchanges, and travel-time effects require independent evidence.
Creative extension: Add a synchronized hydrograph and tributary stations to examine changes through time. This is a proposed investigation, not a verified explanation.
