Structure and Calibration Methods of Rainfall-Runoff Models

Article Preview

Abstract:

Hydrological phenomena in nature are always complex processes. Among the studies of hydrology, prediction of runoff from rainfall is a major issue. This is caused by highly nonlinear relationship, variability of spatial and temporal factors (DIMITRI & KHADA, 2003). Additionally, the data for rainfall in long periods tend to be more available than the record of flow (Sajikumar & Thandaveswara, 1999). Therefore, in order to get precise estimates of runoff, rainfall-runoff models are required. This paper describes three types of rainfall-runoff model and the main calibration methods .
