N2 - Despite the impact of flow cessation on aquatic ecology, the hydrology of intermittent rivers has been largely overlooked.

The models presented predict unrecorded hydrological state data with performance metrics exceeding 95%, providing insights into the relationship between ponding prevalence and the performance of statistical simulation of this ecologically important intermediate state between drying and flowing conditions.
