Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of vertical water balance on modelling Pantanal (Brazil) spatio‐temporal inundation dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of vertical water balance representation on modeling a large-scale floodplain was evaluated using a 1D/2D coupled model approach, which also considered the representation of the vertical water processes over the floodplain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling the role of reservoirs versus floodplains on large-scale river hydrodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, an adaptation of the MGB model to simulate reservoirs as an internal boundary condition, enabling the explicit simulation of hydrodynamic processes along reservoirs and their interaction with upstream and downstream floodplains in large basins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integração do Modelo MGB-IPH com Sistema de Informação Geográfica

TL;DR: In this paper, a coupling between the MapWindow GIS platform and the MGB-IPH hydrological model is presented for the modeling of the Ijuí River basin (Southern Brazil).
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrological reanalysis across the 20th century: A case study of the Amazon Basin

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study spanning back to the year 1900 using a large-scale hydrologic-hydrodynamic model (MGB) forced by a long-term climatic reanalysis of rainfall (ERA-20CM) with bias removed, and a data assimilation (DA) technique coupled with a localization method (LEnKF) to use several ground observations of daily discharge within a radius of influence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Issues of spatial correlation arising from the use of TRMM rainfall estimates in the Brazilian Amazon

TL;DR: In this paper, the Matern spatial correlation function with shape parameter κ = 1/2, giving an exponential correlation function, was found to be adequate for modeling spatial correlation, and the same issues arise whenever satellite-derived estimates of a component of the water cycle must be combined with ground-based measurements.
