Abstract: Accurate forecasting of river discharge is essential for the efficient operation of water resources systems. Therefore, researchers are consistently developing and improving various techniques to predict river discharge with relative ease and high accuracy, although traditional methods are available. This paper presents mainly three data-driven modelling techniques, namely the stage rating curve (SRC), generalised reduced gradient (GRG) solver, and an artificial neural network (ANN) to accurately model the stage-discharge relationship for local rivers in Trinidad and Tobago using only low flow data. The model that produced the overall superior results was the ANN.
