This paper presents a modeling application of surface runoff using the Hydrologic Modelling System (HEC-HMS). A case study was carried out for the Jianghe watershed, a typical semi-arid and sub-humid geo-climatic region in northern China. Two modeling schemes using different descriptive sub-mechanism models provided by HEC-HMS for runoff volume, direct runoff and routing (channel flow) were inv...

urbanization is a pervasive global trend. the development of residential areas and road network in hajighoshan watershed (northern iran) has been observed in the recent several decades. the objective of this study is the quantitative investigation of the effects of impervious surfaces development and urban development on runoff generation and flood hazard. the study of urban area development wa...

The last few years have witnessed an enormous study in the area of integrated hydrological modeling with GIS application. In this research, attempt was made to critically look at the application of HEC-GeoHMS which is an extension of ArcView in HEC-HMS; an HEC package which is a new generation of software being developed for rainfall-runoff simulation. The main role of HEC-GeoHMS is to formulat...

In the current study, a novel method is proposed to analyze simultaneous impacts of non-stationarity in hydrological time series and land-use changes urban areas predict future floods probable damage. For this purpose, rainfall frequency analyses were conducted for two periods (first: 1979–2009 second: 1979–2019), results compared. Then, hydrologic modeling catchment was carried out using HEC-H...

This paper develops a framework for regional scale flood modeling that integrates NEXRAD Level III rainfall, GIS, and a hydrological model (HEC-HMS/RAS). The San Antonio River Basin (about 4000 square miles, 10,000 km2) in Central Texas, USA, is the domain of the study because it is a region subject to frequent occurrences of severe flash flooding. A major flood in the summer of 2002 is chosen ...

estimation of parameters of a hydrologic model is undertaken using a procedure called “calibration” in order to obtain predictions as close as possible to observed values. this study aimed to use the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm for automatic calibration of the hec-hms hydrologic model, which includes a library of different event-based models for simulating the rainfall-runoff pr...
