Book Hydrologic Modeling of the Tsitika River Watershed

Download or read book Hydrologic Modeling of the Tsitika River Watershed written by Martina Szabová and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lumped conceptual rainfall-runoff model based on the MIKE 11/NAM modeling code has been applied to the 372 km2 Tsitika River Watershed. The model was constructed on the basis of readily accessible data of precipitation, temperature, land cover and topography, and was calibrated against the river discharge at the watershed outlet. Several validation tests were carried out and model performance evaluated in terms of the water balance error and the agreement of general hydrograph shape. Sensitivity analysis was conducted to explore the variability of simulation response produced by uncertainty associated with parameter values. In general, the model captured the dynamics of river discharge moderately well with most problems arising during the simulations of the snowmelt season. The differences between observations and model output were attributed to the insufficient spatial coverage of meteorological input data, errors in model structure resulting from a simplified model set-up, and errors caused by inevitable simplifications of temporal and spatial characteristics of the hydrologic behaviour of a very complex natural system.

Book Distributed Hydrologic Modeling Using GIS

Download or read book Distributed Hydrologic Modeling Using GIS written by Baxter E. Vieux and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During ten years serving with the USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS), now known as the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), I became amazed at how millions of dollars in contract monies were spent based on simplistic hydrologic models. As project engineer in western Kansas, I was responsible for building flood control dams (authorized under Public Law 566) in the Wet Walnut River watershed. This watershed is within the Arkansas-Red River basin, as is the Illinois River basin referred to extensively in this book. After building nearly 18 of these structures, I became Assistant State Engineer in Michigan and, for a short time, State Engineer for NRCS. Again, we based our entire design and construction program on simplified relationships variously referred to as the SCS method. I recall announcing that I was going to pursue a doctoral degree and develop a new hydrologic model. One of my agency's chief engineers remarked, "Oh no, not another model!" Since then, I hope that I have not built just another model but have significantly advanced the state of hydrologic modeling for both researchers and practitioners. Using distributed hydrologic techniques described in this book, I also hope one day to forecast the response of the dams I built.

Book Calibration of Watershed Models

Download or read book Calibration of Watershed Models written by Qingyun Duan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2003-01-10 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Water Science and Application Series, Volume 6. During the past four decades, computer-based mathematical models of watershed hydrology have been widely used for a variety of applications including hydrologic forecasting, hydrologic design, and water resources management. These models are based on general mathematical descriptions of the watershed processes that transform natural forcing (e.g., rainfall over the landscape) into response (e.g., runoff in the rivers). The user of a watershed hydrology model must specify the model parameters before the model is able to properly simulate the watershed behavior.

Book excerpt: Watershed modeling is at the heart of modern hydrology, supplying rich information that is vital to addressing resource planning, environmental, and social problems. Even in light of this important role, many books relegate the subject to a single chapter while books devoted to modeling focus only on a specific area of application. Recognizing the

Download or read book Hydrologic Modeling written by Quan Cui and published by Delve Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As water is our precious natural resource, hydrology has evolved as a science to helping people understand how the water system works. Hydrologic models are usually simplified, conceptual or physical models which allow people simulate and predict water cycling procedures. In this book, we presented the state-of-the-art hydrological models and cases of their applications. Models type including statistic models like Mann-Kendall method, F-test method, stoichiometry method, merging different hydrologic software models, and building up new integrated models. Applications cases are used to simulate and predict water quality and quantity like runoffs for reservoirs and rivers, urban storm water, estuaries, regional water quantity assessment, sea-level rise on the coast. Some chapters discussed how to improve existing hydrologic models in the way of setting scenarios, how to combine satellite data with models, and downscale to localized the models. Research topics such as aquatic biogeochemistry, fate and transport of bacteria in a coastal area, water management policies, effects from weirs and beaver dams, are also addressed in this book.
