I remember to have map north of Mali rivers in semi-desertic areas that have no water for years. We should not confuse intermittent and seasonal. Simply clarify intermittent on the wiki page. Pierre Warin Sat May 19 02:33:18 UTC 2018 Hi,
I seek comments and thoughts on ------------- Seasonal: The seasonal tag in well established. I don't think there is much confusion with it. --------------- Intermittent: The intermittent tag continues to be confused with seasonal. Possibly this is because some want to use it to indicate that a follow is both seasonal and intermittent? ------------- Ephemeral: There is also ephemeral being used with stream=ephemeral. This cannot be used with other water features e.g. lakes. I think the tag ephemeral=yes could be used, other ideas for tagging are flow=ephemeral, water=ephemeral ... ------------------- Combinations with seasonal? Think I have raised this before but not come to any firm conclusion myself. I think that tagging seasonal=summer intermittent= yes leads to confusion. Is the summer flow intermittent? Or is ther regular summer flow with intermittent flow at other times of year? It may be better to tag seasonal:intermittent=summer or seasonal=summer seasonal:intermittent=winter;autumn;spring
