The Reno is a river of Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy. In Hydrology, the discharge or outflow of a River is the volume of Water transported by it in a certain amount of time Emilia-Romagna is one of the 20 Regions of Italy. The capital is Bologna.

A drainage basin is an extent of Land where Water from Rain or Snow melt drains downhill into a body of water such as a River, 5,000 km²^[2]. The annual average discharge at the mouth is c. 95 m³/s; at the point the river start to flow in the Pianura Padana (Po River Plain), it amounts to c.
