Improved Guidelines for the Use of the Rising Air Float Technique for River Gauging

The rising air float technique is a method of river discharge measurement involving the release of air bubbles from a perforated pipe laid across the bed of a river. This paper describes field and laboratory analyses which seek to extend previous work and to assess the potential of the technique as an alternative for conventional methods of spot and continuous gauging.
