Abstract Event-based rainfall-runoff models are practical tools commonly used to predict catchments’ response a rainfall event. However, one of the main concerns is that characteristics rain events neglected in model development. This paper develops novel event-based equation incorporate into account. The performance new evaluated based on root mean square error, Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency coeff...

The Gully Land Consolidation (GLC) project, aiming to create land for agriculture on the Loess Plateau, heavily interfered with underlying surface and thus affected hydrological process. purpose of this study was investigate effects GLC runoff peak flow rates watershed Plateau under different rainfall events years. A GIS-based Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) model used. results ...

With the acceleration of urbanization in a river basin, changes underlying surface structure basin are more and intense, which causes frequent floods. This article aims to analyze applicability HEC-HMS model flood simulation basins influence land use on catchment runoff. Pu River Basin is typical taken as research project. Based changes, soil types, long-term hydrological data Basin, constructe...

The Benanain Watershed is located in East Nusa Tenggara with an area of 3,181 km2 and divided into 29 sub-watersheds. itself eastern region Indonesia a unique climate condition called semi-arid. high rainfall intensity occurring short duration results large surface runoff erosion. Floods erosion semi-arid areas due to sensitive soils drought heavy extremely. This paper presents the application ...

introduction: given its low and sparse precipitation both in spatial and temporal scales, iran is nestled in an arid and semiarid part of the world. on the other hand, because of population growth, urbanization and the development of agriculture and industry sector is frequently encountered with increasing water demand. the increasing trend of water demand will widen the gap between water suppl...

This work analyses the prominent characteristics of flash flood regimes in two Mediterranean areas: the NorthWestern Mediterranean region, which includes Catalonia, France and Northern Italy, and the South-Eastern Mediterranean region, which includes Israel. The two regions are characterized by similarities in the hydro-meteorological monitoring infrastructure, which permits us to ensure homoge...

AIMS To investigate the number of Escherichia coli in runoff derived directly from fresh cowpats and to determine if the E. coli are attached to dense particles, in flocs or as individual cells. METHODS AND RESULTS Three cowpats were collected monthly from the same farm for 13 months and the number of E. coli in them estimated. A rainfall simulator was used to generate runoff from the individ...

The amount of delay in rainwater storage and runoff green roof depends on the type soil, thickness, water content, plant, growth condition, slope, etc., but effect soil is large. In this study, we focused examined a simple method to estimate runoff. determine macropore volume involved drainage from transition content during rainfall moisture characteristic curve, that equals storage.
