“…Although extensive research on overland flow and subsurface stormflow generation at the hillslope and reach scale, as well as baseflow contributions to perennial streams, has been conducted, there are still few studies on the dynamic controls of flow occurrence in ephemeral and intermittent reaches (James and Roulet, 2009;Zimmer and McGlynn, 2017). Studies of intermittent streams can be roughly categorised into the following four scales: (1) continental-scale studies based on discharge measurements (Reynolds et al, 2015;Eng et al, 2016;Trancoso et al, 2016;Jaeger et al, 2019), (2) (nested) catchment-scale studies based on wet/dry mapping of the stream network (Godsey and Kirchner, 2014;Sando and Blasch, 2015;Shaw, 2016;Goodrich et al, 2018;Jensen et al, 2017Jensen et al, , 2018, (3) single-site or hillslope-scale studies based on conventional discharge measurements (Sidle et al, 1995;Ries et al, 2017;Moreno-de-las-Heras et al, 2020), and (4) (multi)catchment-scale studies that are based on continuous measurements of streamflow presence and absence with low-cost sensors (i.e. temperature, electric conductivity, or flow sensors and time-lapse cameras) at multiple locations along the stream to monitor the intermittent stream network (Jaeger and Olden, 2012;Zimmermann et al, 2014;Zimmer and McGlynn, 2017;Jensen et al, 2019;Kaplan et al, 2020a).…”
