abstract

the role of unit hydrograph is very important in prediction of floods in the rivers, design protection and control structures in the catchment area. therefore in the basin without hydrometric stations, by using mathematical and empirical relationship and based on climatic data, the water level in the basin is estimated. two methods of geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph and width function instantaneous unit hydrograph, due to use of the watershed physical characteristics and gis software, estimate the instantaneous unit hydrograph in ungauged basin with reasonable accuracy. wfiuh method for allocating different flow rate in hillslope and the main canal basin, is more coordinated with reality. in this article instantaneous unit hydrograph of ghorveh basin with an area equal to 14/67 km in kurdistan, with the help of gis and archydro extension and pem4pit extracted. the results of this two methods were compared and showed that concentration time estimate approximately the same by each method, almost 4.6 hours. but wfiuh method by utilizing the flow rate proportional to slope, covering more detail in it.

Geomorphologic Instantaneous Unit Hydrograph Stream Flow Simulation for the Yalobusha River Basin, MS

In erosion and sedimentation problems, estimating the range of significant stream flows to include when computing sediment transport can prove challenging in ungauged or under-gauged basins. This paper describes an event-based model incorporating a geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph and stochastic descriptions of peak flows and frequency of storm events from nearby reference watershed...

Runoff simulation using geomorphological instantaneous unit hydrograph (GIUH). (case study: Bar basin-Khorasan Razavi)

Considering the most of country have no gage station, in recent year one method can be proposed with the involvement of other information, which will affect hydrology condition. It can estimate flood water level. In this study, considering relationship between geomorphology and hydrology, using little information, flood hydrograph were simulated. This method is named geomorphological instantane...

Improving the flood prediction capability of the Xinanjiang model in ungauged nested catchments by coupling it with the geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph

Improving the predictive capabilities of rainfall-runoff models in ungauged catchments is a challenging task but has important theoretical and practical significance. In this study, we investigated the predictive capabilities of the conceptual Xinanjiang model (XAJ), which is widely used for flood forecasting and simulation in China, in ungauged catchments. We further produced a hybrid rainfall...

A measure of watershed nonlinearity: interpreting a variable instantaneous unit hydrograph model on two vastly different sized – watersheds

This paper reviews the use of an input-dependent kernel in a linear convolution integral as a quasi-nonlinear approach to unify nonlinear overland flow, channel routing and catchment runoff processes. The conceptual model of a variable kernel or instantaneous unit hydrograph (IUH) is characterized by a nonlinear storage-discharge 5 relation, q=cs , where the storage exponent N is an index or de...

Synthetic Unit Hydrograph Methods: A Critical Review

The present study critically reviews the synthetic unit hydrograph (SUH) methods available in hydrologic literature. The study reveals that the traditional methods of SUH derivation, e.g., Snyder, SCS, traditional methods like Snyder and TS method that does not yield satisfactory results, and their application to the practical engineering problems is tedious and combursome. On the other hand, p...
