WMS:TR-20 Kinematic Wave

The kinematic wave method uses two different rating coefficients, x and m, in the following equation:

$Q=xA^{m}$

where $Q$ is the discharge, $A$ is the valley storage area divided by length and $x$ and $m$ are the coefficient and exponent of the relationship describing the reach and maximum inflow hydrograph peak discharge.
