Creating Flow Duration Curve (FDC) Curves Using Discharge Data | Tutorial

Welcome to this comprehensive tutorial on creating FDC (Flow Duration Curve) curves using discharge data. In this video, we will guide you through the process of generating FDC curves, a fundamental tool in hydrological analysis for understanding and assessing river flow characteristics.

FDC curves provide crucial information about the distribution of river flows over time. By plotting the percentage of time that a specific flow rate is exceeded, hydrologists and water resource engineers can evaluate the frequency and duration of low and high flows, which are vital for various applications such as water supply planning, flood risk assessment, and environmental impact studies.

In this tutorial, we will cover the step-by-step process of creating FDC curves using discharge data in MS Excel. We will explain the importance of accurate and reliable discharge data collection and introduce various data sources and measurement techniques commonly used in hydrological studies.
