1. Stage measurement involves using staff gauges, wire gauges, and automatic recorders like float gauges and bubble gauges to measure the water surface elevation in a river over time.
2. Staff gauges involve a fixed graduated staff while wire gauges lower a weighted wire from above the water surface. Float gauges use a float and pulley system connected to a recorder while bubble gauges measure pressure from gas bled into the river.
3. Automatic recorders provide continuous measurements of stage over time in a stage hydrograph, which is important for estimating design floods and historical flood discharges.

with their working advantage and disadvantages
Hydrologic data generally consist of a sequence of observations of some phase of the hydrologic cycle made at a particular site. The data may be a record of the discharge of a stream at a particular place, or it may be a record of the amount of rainfall caught in a particular rain gage.
Although for most hydrologic purposes a long record is preferred to a short one, the user should recognize that the longer the record the greater the chance that there has been a change in the physical conditions of the basin or in the methods of data collection. If these are appreciable, the composite record would represent only a nonexistent condition and not one that existed either before or after the change. Such a record is inconsistent.

2. Measurement of Stage
Manual Gauges
Staff Gauge
• The simplest of stage measurements are made by
noting the elevation of the
water surface in contact with a fixed graduated staff.
The staff is made of a
durable material with a low coefficient of expansion
with respect to both temperature
and moisture. It is fixed rigidly to a structure, such as
an abutment, pier, wall, etc.
3. • The staff may be vertical or inclined with clearly and
accurately graduated permanent markings.
• The markings are distinctive, easy to read from a distance
and are similar to those on a surveying staff.
• Sometimes, it may not be possible to read the entire range
of water-surface elevations of a stream by a single gauge
and
• In such cases the gauge is built in sections at different
locations. Such gauges are called sectional gauges.
• When installing sectional gauges, care must be taken to
provide an overlap between various gauges and to refer all
the sections to the same common
datum.
5. 2. Wire Gauge
• It is a gauge used to measure the water-
surface elevation from above the surface such
as from a bridge or similar structure. In this, a
weight is lowered by a reel to touch the water
surface.
• A mechanical counter measures the rotation
of the wheel which is proportional to the
length of the wire paid out. The operating
range of this kind of gauge is about 25 m.
6. Automatic Stage Recorders
• The staff gauge and wire gauge described earlier
are manual gauges. While they are simple and
inexpensive, they have to be read at frequent
intervals to define the variation of stage with
time accurately.
• Automatic stage recorders overcome this basic
objection of manual staff gauges and find
considerable use in stream-flow measurement
practice.
7. Float-Gauge Recorder
• The float-operated stage
recorder is the most common
type of automatic stage recorder
in use. In this, a float operating
in a stilling well is balanced by
means of a counterweight over
the pulley of a recorder.
• Displacement of the float due to
the rising or lowering of the
water-surface elevation causes
an angular displacement of the
pulley and hence of the input
shaft of the recorder.
8. Float-Gauge Recorder <Cont.>
• Mechanical linkages convert this angular
displacement to the linear displacement of a pen
to record over a drum driven by clockwork.
• The pen traverse is continuous with automatic
reversing when it reaches the full width of the
chart.
• A clockwork mechanism runs the recorder for a
day, week or fortnight and provides a continuous
plot of stage vs time.
• A good instrument will have a large-size float and
least friction.
9. • Improvements over this basic analogue model
consists of models that give digital signals
recorded on a storage device or transmit directly
onto a central data-processing centre.
• To protect the float from debris and to reduce the
water surface wave effects on the recording,
stilling wells are provided in all float-type stage
recorder installations.
• Note the intake pipes that communicate with the
river and flushing arrangement to flush these
intake pipes off the sediment and debris
occasionally.
10. • The water-stage recorder has to be located
above the highest water level expected in the
stream to prevent it from getting inundated
during floods. Further, the instrument must be
properly housed in a suitable enclosure to
protect it from weather elements and
vandalism.
• On account of these, the water stage-recorder
installations prove to be costly in most
instances.
11.
12. 2. Bubble Gauge
• In this gauge, compressed air or gas is made to bleed
out at a very small rate through an outlet placed at the
bottom of the river. A pressure gauge measures the gas
pressure which in turn is equal to the water column
above the outlet.
• A small change in the water-surface elevation is felt as a
change in pressure from the present value at the pressure
gauge and this in turn is adjusted by a servo-mechanism
to bring the gas to bleed at the original rate under the
new head. The pressure gauge reads the new water
depth which is transmitted to a recorder.
14. The bubble gauge has certain specific advantages
over a float-operated water stage recorder and
these can be listed as under:
1. There is no need for costly stilling wells;
2. A large change in the stage, as much as 30 m, can
be measured;
3. The recorder assembly can be quite far away
from the sensing point; and
4. Due to constant bleeding action there is less
likelihood of the inlet getting blocked or choked.
15. The stage data
• The stage data is often presented in the form
of a plot of stage against chronological time
known as stage hydrograph.
• In addition to its use in the determination of
stream discharge, stage data itself is of
importance in design of hydraulic structures,
flood warning and flood-protection works.
16. The stage data
• Reliable long-term stage data corresponding to
peak floods can be analyzed statistically to estimate
the design peak river stages for use in the design of
hydraulic structures, such as bridges, weirs, etc.
• Historic flood stages are important in the indirect
estimation of corresponding flood discharges. In
view of these diverse uses, the river stage forms an
important hydrologic parameter chosen for regular
observation and recording.
18. STREAMFLOW MEASUREMENT
• Stream flow representing the runoff phase of
the hydrologic cycle is the most important
basic data for hydrologic studies.
• It was seen in the previous chapters that
precipitation, evaporation and evapo-
transpiration are all difficult to measure
exactly and the presently adopted methods
have severe limitations.
19. • In contrast, the measurement of stream flow is amenable
to fairly accurate assessment.
• Interestingly, stream flow is the only part of the
hydrologic cycle that can be measured accurately.
• A stream can be defined as a flow channel into which the
surface runoff from a specified basin drains. Generally,
there is considerable exchange of water between a
stream and the underground
water.
• Stream flow is measured in units of discharge (m3/s)
occurring at a specified time and constitutes historical
data. The measurement of discharge in a stream forms an
important branch of Hydrometry, the science and
practice of water measurement.
20. Measurement techniques
• Stream flow measurement techniques can be broadly
classified into two categories as
(i) direct determination
(a) Area-velocity methods
(b) Dilution techniques,
(c) Electromagnetic method, and
(d) Ultrasonic method.
(ii) indirect determination
(a) Hydraulic, structures, such as weirs,
flumes and gated structures, and
(b) Slope-area method.
