in highland watersheds, runoff generated by snow melting plays an important role in stream water supply. srm (snowmelt runoff model) is a hydrologic model which simulates and predicts daily flow in mountain watersheds dominated by snow melting process. the srm is based on the degree-day procedure which, is a widely used method but does not consider physical factors. in the current research, the...

Considering the importance of water and computing the amount of rainfall runoff resulted from precipitation in recent decades, using appropriate methods for predicting the amount of runoff from rainfall date has been really essential. Rainfall-runoff models are used to estimate runoff generated from precipitation in the catchment area. Rainfall-runoff process is totally a non-linear phenomenon....

A water-table dependent reservoir model to investigate the effect of drought and vascular plant invasion on peatland hydrology. Author manuscript, published in "Journal of Hydrology (2013) 32 p." 2 ABSTRACT: This paper investigates the water table dynamics in a peatland showing a wide range of water table fluctuations. A reservoir model of water table fluctuations in a double-porosity peat is p...

Regional hydrological modeling in ungauged regions has attracted growing attention in water resources research. The southern Tibetan Plateau often suffers from data scarcity in watershed hydrological simulation and water resources assessment. This hinders further research characterizing the water cycle and solving international water resource issues in the area. In this study, a multi-spatial d...

this study examines the relationship between land use/land cover (lulc) changes and surface runoff generation empirically to reveal how urbanization has altered the hydrologic characteristics of a watershed. a hydrological model, the soil and water assessment tool (swat), is employed to estimate the watershed runoff generation for two lulc scenarios from 2002 to 2010. the cypress creek watershe...

Separating surface flow (SF) from subsurface (SSF) based on direct runoff measurements in river gauges is an important issue hydrology. In this study, we developed a simple and practical method, coefficient (RC), for separating SF SSF. RC depends mainly soil texture, land use cover, but also considered the effect of slope rainfall intensity. We assessed our RC-based method three different types...

Estimation of runoff volume and sediment load is a problem that directly affects the performance of dams due to the reduction in the storage capacity of their reservoirs and their effect on dam efficiency and operation schedule. The simulation models can be considered for evaluation of sediment potential if the continuous field measurements are not available. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWA...

globally, soil erosion is one of the most important environmental problems which is threaten soil and water resources. soil properties are main parameters to affect runoff and soil erosion processes. so, this study was conducted to investigate the effects of some soil properties on runoff and soil erosion in the forest lands located in vicinity of sari city. rainfall simulator was set in 15 ran...
