Certain parameters of baseflow, such as the [[mean baseflow residence time|mean residence time]] and the baseflow recession curve, can be useful in describing the mixing of waters (such as from precipitation and groundwater) and the level of groundwater contribution to streamflow in catchments. <ref>{{ cite journal

[[Hydrograph separation|Baseflow separation]] is often used to determine what portion of a streamflow [[hydrograph]] occurs from baseflow, and what portion occurs from [[overland flow]]. Common methods include using [[isotope hydrology|isotope tracing]] and the software program [http://water.usgs.gov/software/HYSEP/ HYSEP], among others.
