Estimation of ungauged Bahr el Jebel flows based on upstream water levels and large scale spatial rainfall data
نویسندگان
چکیده
The study derives Bahr el Jebel flow data at Mongalla, combining upstream flow from Lake Albert and torrential runoff derived from the Collaborative Historical African Rainfall Model (CHARM) rainfall data in the catchment between Lake Albert and Mongalla using GIS techniques. The results provide an updated rating curve for Lake Albert outflows and currently unavailable flow data at Mongalla, the entry to the Sudd swamp, with a high level of confidence for the period after 1983; data which are essential for detailed hydrological assessments of the swamp system with its significant importance for the economies and lives of people in the area.

In this paper, the El-Hames empirical method was used to determine the peak runoff flow in Iranshahr catchment. The El-Hames method is based on morphological parameters and SCS Curve Number of the studied area. The implementing was processed by collecting the required data including soil type and vegetation cover, land use maps, digital elevation model and satellite images from the associated i...

متن کاملConfidence intervals for a spatially generalized, continuous simulation flood frequency model for Great Britain
[1] There is growing interest in the application of ‘‘continuous simulation’’ conceptual rainfall-runoff models for flood frequency estimation as an adjunct to event-based or statistical design methodology. The approach has advantages that stem from the use of models with continuous water balance accounting. Conceptual rainfall-runoff models usually require calibration, which in turn requires g...
متن کاملSimulation of Flow Hydrographs at an Ungauged Site in Taiwan using a distributed rainfall-runoff model
Simulation of flow hydrograph at an ungauged site recently has attracted considerable attention. A distributed rainfall-runoff model not only can describe the spatial heterogeneity of physiographical and hydrological characteristics in the catchment, but also can simulate the hydrological processes inside the studied area. If a distributed rainfall-runoff model can be adequately verified based ...
