AutoVL: Automated streamflow separation for changing catchments and climate impact analysis by Vincent Lyne

“…The separation of streamflow into fastflow and slowflow components has been historically ambiguous, with existing separation methods like the Lyne-Hollick (LH) algorithm facing challenges due to subjective parameter choices. Here, we address this issue by developing the AutoVL algorithm which objectively and automatically partitions streamflow for no parameter input. …”
