Inverse distributed hydrological modelling of alpine catchments
Even in physically based distributed hydrological models, various remaining parameters must be estimated for each sub-catchment. This can involve tremendous effort, especially when the number of sub-catchments is large and the applied hydrological model is computationally expensive. Automatic parameter estimation tools can significantly facilitate the calibration process. Hence, we combined the...
متن کاملHow far can we go in distributed hydrological modelling?
This paper considers distributed hydrological models in hydrology as an expression of a pragmatic realism. Some of the problems of distributed modelling are discussed including the problem of nonlinearity, the problem of scale, the problem of equifinality, the problem o f uniqueness and the problem of uncertainty. A structure for the application of distributed modelling is suggested based on an...
متن کاملDistributed Hydrological Modelling and Application of Remote Sensing Data
The use of physically-based distributed hydrological models demands comprehensive amounts of data both to parameterise and force the model as well as to validate it. Conventionally measured data are mainly restricted to point measurements which are less optimal for use in a spatial distributed context. However, remote sensing can offer such area integrated measures albeit through a more indirec...
متن کاملDistributed hydrological modelling of a heavily glaciated Alpine river basin
A glacier submodel was successfully integrated into the distributed hydrological model WaSiM-ETH to simulate the discharge of a heavily glaciated drainage basin. The glacier submodel comprises a distributed temperature index model including solar radiation to simulate the melt rate of glaciated areas. Meltwater and rainfall are transformed into glacier discharge by using a linear reservoir appr...
متن کاملComputer - assisted mesh generation based on Hydrological Response Units for distributed 1 hydrological modelling
21 Distributed hydrological models rely on a spatial discretization composed of homogeneous 22 units representing different areas within the catchment. Hydrological Response Units 23 (HRUs) typically form the basis of such a discretization. HRUs are generally obtained by 24 intersecting raster or vector layers of land uses, soil types, geology and sub-catchments. 25 Polylines maps representing ...
