      abstract = {A general type of supercritical flow flume has been  developed over many years of experience and testing in  discharge measurements at the Walnut Gulch experimental  watershed, Tombstone, Ariz. The design and experience with  .the original type flume, called the Walnut Gulch .flume,  is discussed and its features and .application difficulties  are described. Methods have been developed to analyze flows  that exhibited lateral asymmetry in cross sectional  profile, and porous dikes have been developed to  considerably reduce asymmetry in the alluvial approach  section to these flumes. Rating relations have been  developed by both experimental and theoretical means. The  experience with the Walnut Gulch flumes has led to an  improved design of supercritical flume, called the Santa  Rita flume. The Santa Rita .flume design is presented in  several sizes, along with a discussion of design  requirements for stilling well intakes to minimize sediment  inundation, record lag interpretation, and construction  methods.},
