Uncertainty Analysis and Hydrologic and Hydraulic Model Linkage in the Watershed Modeling System
While the process of modeling and mapping a 100-year floodplain is inherently full of uncertainty, engineers are still required to determine a single line boundary for flood insurance rate and other floodplain studies. This is despite the fact that a good engineer knows that, within reasonable limits, different modeling parameters can be chosen that result in shifting the floodplain boundary ei...
متن کاملGlobal sensitivity analysis techniques for probabilistic ground water modeling.
Global sensitivity analysis techniques are better suited for analyzing input-output relationships over the full range of parameter variations and model outcomes, as opposed to local sensitivity analysis carried out around a reference point. This article describes three such techniques: (1) stepwise rank regression analysis for building input-output models to identify key contributors to output ...
متن کاملA Retrospective Analysis of Model Uncertainty for Forecasting Hydrologic Change
GIS-based hydrologic modeling offers a convenient means of assessing the impacts associated with land-cover/use change for environmental planning efforts. Alternative future scenarios can be used as input to hydrologic models and compared with existing conditions to evaluate potential environmental impacts as part of this process. Model error, however, can be significant and potentially compoun...
متن کاملStochastic Residual-Error Analysis for Estimating Hydrologic Model Predictive Uncertainty
A hybrid time series-nonparametric sampling approach, referred to herein as semiparametric, is presented for the estimation of model predictive uncertainty. The methodology is a two-step procedure whereby a distributed hydrologic model is first calibrated, then followed by brute force application of time series analysis with nonparametric random generation to synthesize serially correlated mode...
متن کاملUncertainty in hydrologic modeling: Toward an integrated data assimilation framework
[1] Despite significant recent developments in computational power and distributed hydrologic modeling, the issue of how to adequately address the uncertainty associated with hydrological predictions remains a critical and challenging one. This issue needs to be properly addressed for hydrological modeling to realize its maximum practical potential in environmental decision-making processes. Ar...
