Looking for hydrologic laws
Abstract
The search for regularities in hydrologic relationships is discussed against the background of the general types of predictive models used in science. The various approaches to the study of water are compared and contrasted. The ideas discussed are illustrated by examples from the development of techniques in flood hydrology and by personal conclusions on the sources for new hypotheses in flood hydrology and the possibility of their verification.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
