Hello. I am trying to create hydrodynamic ocean model for coral larvae dispersal modeling in the Philippines as part of my planned masters thesis topic. In line with this, I would like to request a database of freshwater discharges (e.g. rivers, creeks, etc.) present at coastal areas of the Philippines. The minimum information we need to use for the model are location (e.g. coordinate) of the discharge point, volume discharge (cubic meter per unit time), and temperature of the water going in to the sea.

Thank you and we really appreciate this initiative by the government.
