estudio hidrológico
También se realizó un estudio hidrológico para determinar el GASTO, que la cuenca aporta a la presa, utilizando para ello diferentes métodos sintéticos.
El texto tiene que ver con el estudio hidrológico de una presa.
Gracias a todos de antemano.

Gasto medio anual aportado a la presa de Valle de Bravo: 2.560 m3/seg

Surface runoff (also known as overland flow) is the flow of water that occurs when excess stormwater, meltwater, or other sources flows over the earth's surface. This might occur because soil is saturated to full capacity, because rain arrives more quickly than soil can absorb it, or because impervious areas (roofs and pavement) send their runoff to surrounding soil that cannot absorb all of it. Surface runoff is a major component of the water cycle.

Andrew Bramhall
: 'volume' is good, not sure about 'flow' here;

Hi Oliver, check the first link I gave, it measures "volumen" in "m3" and "gasto" in "m3/seg."

(the amount of ) excess water
A hydrological study was also carried out to determine the amount of waste water that the basin that the catchment area/ drainage basin brought to the dam, using different man-made methods for this.

: What makes you think it should be waste water or excess water?//Ah, ok, but not waste water then.

Your own link confirms it! Surface runoff (also known as overland flow) is the flow of water that occurs when EXCESS stormwater.....

discharge / streamflow
Discharge :
The rate at which water passes a given point. Discharge is expressed in a volume per time with units of L3/T. Discharge is often used interchangeably with streamflow.

Example sentence:
This study addresses the need for research in the dynamics of land use in the watershed with the aim of confirming an increase in the maximum discharge over time because of the recurring destruction of the main bridge
Este trabajo surge como una necesidad de investigación sobre la dinámica de uso del suelo en la cuenca, con el fin de confirmar un aumento en el gasto máximo a través del tiempo, debido al recurrente derrumbe del puente principal
Discussion
As so often, more context would really help to resolve this.

I assume you are concerned that "GASTO" is in capital letters? Can you explain further?
