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...

abstract land surface hydrological models has importance in the determination of soil moisture and temperature, the rate of evapotranspiration, stream flow by emphasis on the land surface physical and dynamic process descriptions. in this research, vic land surface hydrological model has been used for the land surface temperature and stream flow determination. the vic runoff simulation in each ...

Several empirical methods for flood flow rate estimation have been presented. In this study,eight new empirical runoff estimation method including Dredge & Burge, Bourges, Inglis, Faning, Hyderabad, Burkli Ziegler, Cramar and Possenti were calculated in Bakhtegan watershed which is located in Fars province. After studying empirical methods for annual flood flow rate estimation and comparing the...

Design flood estimation is often required in engineering practice such as design of hydrologic structures, flood plain management, river ecological studies and flood insurance studies. The national guideline for design flood estimation in Australia known as Australian Rainfall and Runoff (ARR) recommends the Design Event Approach as the preferred method of rainfallbased design flood estimation ...

Estimation of surface runoff in a watershed based on the rate of received precipitation and quantifying discharge at outlet is important in hydrologic studies. In this study, HEC-HMS hydrological model version 3.4 was used to simulate rainfall-runoff process in Abnama watershed located in south of Iran. To compute infiltration, rainfall excess conversion to runoff and flow routing, methods like...

[1] Motivated by the recent increasing availability of global remote sensing data for estimating precipitation and describing land surface characteristics, this note reports an approximate assessment of quasi-global runoff computed by incorporating satellite rainfall data and other remote sensing products in a relatively simple rainfall-runoff simulation approach: the Natural Resources Conserva...

A major structural inconsistency of the traditional curve number (CN) model is its dependence on an unstable fixed initial abstraction, which normally results in sudden jumps in runoff estimation. Likewise, the lack of pre-storm soil moisture accounting (PSMA) procedure is another inherent limitation of the model. To circumvent those problems, we used a variable initial abstraction after ensemb...

Responses of a runoff system with slope-length distribution have been studied in detail by many researchers. In those studies, rainfall input to the runoff system was considered a deterministic variable. However, rainfall input should be treated as a random process. In this paper, the Kinematic Wave model is used as a runoff system, and differential equationswhose solutions provide the firstto ...

An attempt was made to compensate for the lack of long hydrological time series and the lack of information on maximum streamflow in the Alzette River basin (Luxembourg) via the regionalization of stormflow coefficients. Streamflow data recorded since 1995 with a very dense streamgauge network allowed the determination of maximum stormflow coefficients in 18 sub-basins of the Alzette. The storm...
