Short summary
Measuring the similarity of distributions of water is a useful tool for model calibration and assessment. We provide a new way of measuring this similarity for streamflow time series. It is derived from the concept of the amount of work required to rearrange one mass distribution into the other. We also use similar mathematical techniques for defining a type of average between water distributions.
