abstract flood is among phenomena which result considerable damages to resources and is a serious issue among hydrologists. the proper estimation of runoff is necessary for designating appropriate approaches for its control or optimal management. various problems have been reported in application of empirical models. the regional analysis of runoff with different return periods by applying wate...

flood is one of the major hydroecological phenomena that in each period causes damages to human achievements. therefore, controlling this phenomenon is the subject of many researchers' works and studies specially hydrologists who have tried to predict the flood`s possible behavior by modeling it. this paper is trying to help one of the most widely used methods to estimate the maximum disch...

A knowledge of rainfall distribution over a finite area is needed for small bydraulic structures design. Hydrologists have always been concerned about Depth- Area- Duration (DAD) for a specific storm in a watershed. An intense storm occurred on June 6, 1992 which claimed some lives in parts of Mashhad, Khorasan Province, Iran. Data of rainfall depth at 29 raingauge stations around the city and ...

Dominant processes in a watershed are those that most strongly control hydrologic function and response. Estimating dominant enables hydrologists to design physically realistic streamflow generation models, management interventions, understand how climate landscape features function. A recent approach estimating is through their link signatures, which metrics characterize the timeseries. Previo...

Hydrologists and ecologists have been working in the Everglades on integrating a long-term hydrologic data network and a short-term ecological database to support ecological models of the habitat of the snail kite, a threatened and endangered bird. Data mining techniques, including artificial neural network (ANN) models, were applied to simulate the hydrology of snail kite habitat in the Water ...
