Discharge is the volume of water flowing in a river at a certain point over a specific period of time, usually measured in cubic meters per second. It directly affects velocity in rivers because as discharge increases, the amount of water flowing through the river also increases, leading to higher velocity. Conversely, lower discharge results in slower velocities.
Discharge Velocity is obtained by Dividing the Total Discharge by the total cross Sectional Area , Where Total cross sectional area Consists of void+solid. In contrast .. Seepage Velocity is defined as the total discharge by the Area of voids only. So Seepage velocity always greater than Discharge Velocity.
Fluctuations in discharge rate can affect stream flow velocity by changing the amount of water in the stream channel. Higher discharge rates typically lead to higher flow velocities, while lower discharge rates result in slower flow velocities. These fluctuations impact the overall movement of water in the stream channel and can influence erosion, sediment transport, and habitat conditions for aquatic organisms.
The carrying capacity of a stream is influenced by its discharge and velocity. A higher discharge and velocity typically allow a stream to transport larger sediments and materials downstream, increasing its carrying capacity. Conversely, lower discharge and velocity may limit the stream's ability to carry sediment and materials.
discharge velocity is the quantity of flow that flows through a unit cross sectional area of the soil in a unit time discharge velocity is used to determine the quantity of flow through soil seepage velocity the actual rate of movement of the water as measured with dye tracer for instance, is the seepage velocity
The carrying capacity of a stream is influenced by its discharge and velocity. Higher discharge and faster velocity can increase the stream's ability to transport sediment and debris, thus raising its carrying capacity. Conversely, lower discharge and slower velocity may result in a reduced carrying capacity as the stream has less energy to move material.
When the discharge of a stream increases, so does it's velocity. When it decreases, so does the velocity.
the competence and capacity of a steam depend on a streams velocity and discharge. Because the velocity and discharge of a given stream are not constant , the competence and capacity of a stream are not constant . competence and capacity vary along a stream and change throughout the year.

When a stream's discharge increases, erosive energy increases.
Urbanization generally means more impermeable surfaces, like concrete. This increases the amount of runoff (rain going to rivers) which means an increase in the amount (and velocity) of discharge.

A higher discharge and velocity typically allow a stream to transport larger sediments and materials downstream, increasing its carrying capacity. Conversely, lower discharge and velocity may limit the stream's ability to carry sediment and materials.
i think it is width X depth X velocity=discharge ?

it is the velocity (V) divided by the retardation of the contaminant. The velocity, V is different from the regular velocity (which is Discharge/Area). V = regular velocity/porosity
As an Alluvial stream stream approaches its base level, the discharge decreases, causing a reduction in velocity. This reduction in velocity leads to sediment deposition and the formation of a delta near the base level.
