The rising limb refers to the part of a hydrograph that shows the increase in river discharge following rainfall or snowmelt. It represents the period when water levels are rising as runoff enters the river system. This phase is crucial for understanding flood dynamics and can indicate how quickly a watershed responds to precipitation events. The steepness of the rising limb can provide insights into the intensity and duration of the rainfall, as well as the characteristics of the watershed.
