Hydrological models are the simplified, conceptual and mathematical description of rainfall, runoff, oceans, rivers, groundwater, snow etc. Rainfall-runoff modeling in the broader sense a hydrological, mathematical model gives a detailed account of Rainfall-Runoff relationships of a catchment area or watershed. Conversion of rainfall into runoff takes place in the modelling. There are many meth...

Estimating surface runoff for ungauged watershed is an important issue. The Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method developed from long-term experimental data is widely used to estimate surface runoff from gaged or ungauged watersheds. Many modelers have used the documented SCS-CN parameters without calibration, sometimes resulting in significant errors in estimating surface runo...

The physically-based flood frequency models use readily available rainfall data and catchment characteristics to derive the flood frequency distribution. In the present study, a new physically-based flood frequency distribution has been developed. This model uses bivariate exponential distribution for rainfall intensity and duration, and the Soil Conservation Service-Curve Number (SCS-CN) metho...

among different models for runoff estimation in watershed management, the soil conservation services-curve number (scs-cn) method along with its modifications have been widely applied to ungauged watersheds because of quickly and more accurate estimation of surface runoff. this approach has been widely accepted by hydrologists, water resources planners, foresters, and engineers, as well. theref...

Many watershed models employ the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) approach for runoff simulation based on soil and land use information. These implicitly assume that is generated by Hortonian process and; therefore, cannot correctly account effects of topography, variable source area (VSA) and/or moisture distribution in a watershed. This paper presents new distributed CN-VSA met...

Estimation of surface run-off in karst watersheds has not been widely carried out and the estimation method is generally developed for non-karst watersheds. This study aims to analyze accuracy river discharge at outlet Karst Biringere Sub-watershed using modified Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) analyzed impact land use change on Sub-watershed. Modification SCS-CN estimating dire...

soil conservation service curve number method (scs-cn) is a widely applied technique for predicting direct runoff from rainfall has been used around the world. in this study, the curve number maps and entry physical model data of kheyrud basin to hec-hms model, the hec-geohms extension in arcgis software and google earth satellite images were used. in addition to the statistical analysis of sur...

The variability of the curve number (CN ) and the retention parameter (S) of the Soil Conservation Service (SCS)-CN method in a small agricultural, lowland watershed (23.4 km2 to the gauging station) in central Poland has been assessed using the probabilistic approach: distribution fitting and confidence intervals (CIs). Empirical CNs and Ss were computed directly from recorded rainfall depths ...
