The model has a 2 layer structure with both a physical and statistical basis for the model parameters. It was developed to fill a need for models with a small number of parameters and of intermediate complexity between a one parameter simple bucket and more complex hydrologically oriented models with many parameters such as the Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting model. The focus was to improve...

Original scientific paper Hydrological simulation in meteorological ungauged areas has always been a difficult problem for the study on atmospheric and hydrological coupling; meanwhile, it is also one of the important factors that restrict model development and basin water resource knowledge. To analyze the mechanism of atmospheric and hydrological coupling, this study quantitatively evaluated ...

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t The isotopic composition of precipitation (δ P) is one of the most widely used and informative terrestrial paleoclimate proxies. δ P integrates a series of hydrological processes; therefore, any interpretation of paleohydrology using δ P requires a thorough understanding and quantification of the full hydrological cycle. In this paper, we use modern data to...

The adaptation of land-use patterns is an essential aspect of minimizing the inevitable impact of climate change at regional and local scales; for example, adapting watershed land-use patterns to mitigate the impact of climate change on a region's hydrology. The objective of this study is to simulate and assess a region's ability to adapt to hydrological changes by modifying land-use patterns i...

The Heihe River is the second largest inland basin in China; runoff in the upper reach greatly affects the socio-economic development in the downstream area. The relationship between spatial vegetation patterns and catchment hydrological processes in the upper Heihe basin has remained unclear to date. In this study, a distributed ecohydrological model is developed to simulate the hydrological p...
