abstract major of hydrological systems are very complicated and it is not possible to understand them completely, therefore simplification is necessary to understand or control of a part of the system behavior such as water balance relationships. hydrological models are simple structure of complicated systems in water cycle in the nature. the first goal of a hydrological model is function predi...

regarding to increased use of groundwater resources, it seems necessary to have more accurate knowledge of characteristics of aquifers in order to improved usage and accurate management of these resources. in this study, we simulated groundwater flow of qazvin aquifer usingvisual modflow model, collecting data and statistics, as well as using different studies. the simulation model has operated...

In this paper, the modeling is based on division of the catchment into a grid mesh. Each cell has a unique response function independent of the functioning of other cells Summation of the flow responses from the cells, result the flow hydrograph from this area basin.A method is presented to simulation the flow hydrograph within a river basin using the hydrological model WetSpa. WetSpa is a GIS-b...

Parameters’ acquisition is a key step for the distributed hydrological model when simulating a basin. Based on remote sensing technology, this article proposed a parameters acquisition method of distributed hydrological model. That is extracting the important ground objects’ information from the images to obtain some parameters of the model. This article also used the hierarchical classificatio...

In recent years, forest fires frequency and intensity has increased, causing a new awareness about their impact not only on vegetation, but also on hydrological regime. Changes in vegetation influence the processes of interception and evapotranspiration, seriously affecting the hydrological cycle. Forest fires can also affect hydrological processes indirectly, altering the hydraulic properties ...

An operational hydrological ensemble forecasting system based on a meteorological ensemble prediction system (M-EPS) coupled with a hydrological model searches to capture the uncertainties associated with the meteorological prediction to better predict river flows. However, the structure of the hydrological model is also an important source of uncertainty that has to be taken into account. This...
