Abstract
Water temperature was calculated at hourly intervals for periods of several consecutive months in Chaudière and Du Nord rivers, Québec, Canada. Calculations were made by the thermal budget method using routine meteorological and hydrological observations from nearby stations. Hourly observations of water temperature for 112 consecutive days on Du Nord river were compared with hourly calculated values: the maximum difference is 3.3°C, the overall r.m.s. figure is 1.2°C and the maximum mean monthly difference is 0.9°C. Comparable results are obtained for Chaudière river. A discussion follows on method, results and differences between the two rivers.
