The determination of instream flows for preserving or improving aquatic ecosystems’ health often includes challenges caused by varied hydraulic conditions, ecological criteria, and socioeconomic considerations. Despite the abundance of available methodologies, there are few available desktop or online applications enabling rapid assessment of instream flows that incorporate pertinent geospatial information for the region. We present R2Cross, a user-friendly, online, instream flow rate calculation tool that was developed for aiding water allocation decisions in the state of Colorado. The R2Cross tool is the only existing online decision support tool based on a hydraulic rating method. It estimates hydraulic conditions at different water stages in a stream reach and compares them to habitat criteria to determine biological instream flow recommendations. Cloud-based Geographic Information System features and additional tools are incorporated that augment information and aid in evaluating ecological needs. The development of the R2Cross tool enables an open-access interface for management authorities and stakeholders to evaluate ecological needs at stream reaches. It automates the reporting process and could assist in making water management decisions about environmental protection. Although the R2Cross tool was developed for the state of Colorado, it is generalizable to other stream systems assuming similar habitat criteria.

R2Cross:一种基于网络的内流决策支持工具

为保护或改善水生生态系统健康而确定的入流流量通常包括由不同水力条件、生态标准和社会经济因素引起的挑战。尽管有大量可用的方法,但很少有可用的桌面或在线应用程序能够快速评估包含该地区相关地理空间信息的入流流量。我们展示了 R2Cross,这是一种用户友好的在线河内流速计算工具,该工具是为帮助科罗拉多州的水资源分配决策而开发的。R2Cross 工具是现有唯一基于水力评级方法的在线决策支持工具。它估计河流河段不同水阶段的水力条件,并将它们与栖息地标准进行比较,以确定河流内的生物流量建议。结合了基于云的地理信息系统功能和附加工具,以增加信息并帮助评估生态需求。R2Cross 工具的开发为管理当局和利益相关者提供了一个开放访问界面,以评估河流河段的生态需求。它使报告过程自动化,并有助于制定有关环境保护的水管理决策。尽管 R2Cross 工具是为科罗拉多州开发的,但它可以推广到其他假设类似栖息地标准的河流系统。结合了基于云的地理信息系统功能和附加工具,以增加信息并帮助评估生态需求。R2Cross 工具的开发为管理当局和利益相关者提供了一个开放访问界面,以评估河流河段的生态需求。它使报告过程自动化,并有助于制定有关环境保护的水管理决策。尽管 R2Cross 工具是为科罗拉多州开发的,但它可以推广到其他假设类似栖息地标准的河流系统。结合了基于云的地理信息系统功能和附加工具,以增加信息并帮助评估生态需求。R2Cross 工具的开发为管理当局和利益相关者提供了一个开放访问界面,以评估河流河段的生态需求。它使报告过程自动化,并有助于制定有关环境保护的水管理决策。尽管 R2Cross 工具是为科罗拉多州开发的,但它可以推广到其他假设类似栖息地标准的河流系统。它使报告过程自动化,并有助于制定有关环境保护的水管理决策。尽管 R2Cross 工具是为科罗拉多州开发的,但它可以推广到其他假设类似栖息地标准的河流系统。它使报告过程自动化,并有助于制定有关环境保护的水管理决策。尽管 R2Cross 工具是为科罗拉多州开发的,但它可以推广到其他假设类似栖息地标准的河流系统。
