Calibration of a conceptual rainfall-runoff model for flood frequency estimation by continuous simulation
An approach is described to the calibration of a conceptual rainfall-runoff model, the Probability Distributed Model (PDM), for estimating flood frequencies at gauged sites by continuous flow simulation. A first step was the estimation of routing store parameters by recession curve analysis. Uniform random sampling was then used to search for parameter sets that produced simulations achieving t...
متن کاملA limits of acceptability approach to model evaluation and uncertainty estimation in flood frequency estimation by continuous simulation: Skalka catchment, Czech Republic
[1] In this study continuous simulation flood frequency predictions on the Skalka catchment in the Czech Republic (672 km, range of altitudes from 460 to 1041 m above sea level), are compared against summary information of rainfall characteristics, the flow duration curve, and the frequency characteristics of flood discharges and snow water equivalent using the generalized likelihood uncertaint...
متن کاملMean likelihood frequency estimation
Estimation of signals with nonlinear as well as linear parameters in noise is studied. Maximum likelihood estimation has been shown to perform the best among all the methods. In such problems, joint maximum likelihood estimation of the unknown parameters reduces to a separable optimization problem, where first, the nonlinear parameters are estimated via a grid search, and then, the nonlinear pa...
متن کاملSimulation-based Estimation of Continuous Dynamic Models
This paper presents several results on consistency properties of simulation-based estimators for a general class of continuous dynamic models. The consistency of these estimators follows from a uniform convergence property of the sample paths over the vector of parameters. This convergence property is established under certain contractivity and monotonicity conditions on the dynamics of the sys...
متن کاملUncertainty in fundamental natural frequency estimation for alluvial deposits
Seismic waves are filtered as they pass through soil layers, from bedrock to surface. Frequencies and amplitudes of the response wave are affected due to this filtration effect and this will result in different ground motion characteristics. Therefore, it is important to consider the impact of the soil properties on the evaluation of earthquake ground motions for the design of structures. Soil ...
