A network-index-based version of TOPMODEL for use with high-resolution digital topographic data
This paper describes the preliminary development of a network-index approach to modify and to extend the classic TOPMODEL. Application of the basic Beven and Kirkby form of TOPMODEL to high-resolution (2·0 m) laser altimetric data (based upon the UK Environment Agency’s light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system) to a 13·8 km catchment in an upland environment identified many saturated areas th...
متن کاملA Calibration Procedure Using Topmodel to Determine Suitability
An evaluation was conducted on three forested upland CT: An evaluation as t land watersheds in the northeastern U.S. to test the suitability of TOPn rtheastern U. t test the suitability of MODEL for predicting water yield over a wide range of climatic L for predicting ater i ld er e tic scenarios. The analysis provides insight of the usefulness of TOPs. MODEL as a predictive tool for future...

Control of the Panama Canal Basin transfers from the United States of America to the Republic of Panama on the last day of 1999. The Panamanian and United States governments are concerned that the rapid deforestation of the Panama Canal Basin will jeopardize the future operation of the Panama Canal, the capacity and quality of potable water supplied to Panama City, and the diverse rain forest e...

متن کاملPredicting spatio-temporal variability in fire return intervals using a topographic roughness index
The shapes of landscapes are fundamental to ecosystem processes at various spatial scales. Topographic roughness index (TRI) is a measure of variability in the landscape surface and a proxy of the potential of disturbances to propagate across the earth’s surface, such as a wildland fire burning across a landscape. We describe the significance of TRI, present methods for calculation, and demonst...
