TL;DR: In this article, the principles governing the application of the conceptual model technique to river flow forecasting are discussed and the necessity for a systematic approach to the development and testing of the model is explained and some preliminary ideas suggested.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a review of fundamental concepts of drought, classification of droughts, drought indices, historical Droughts using paleoclimatic studies, and the relation between DAs and large scale climate indices.

TL;DR: A diagnostically interesting decomposition of NSE is presented, which facilitates analysis of the relative importance of its different components in the context of hydrological modelling, and it is shown how model calibration problems can arise due to interactions among these components.

TL;DR: The Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) as mentioned in this paper estimates the spatial variation of most essential hydro-meteorological parameters empirically, and requires only field information on short wave atmospheric transmittance, surface temperature and vegetation height.

TL;DR: In this paper, a summary and review of 94 catchment experiments shows that accumulated information on the effect of vegetation changes on water yield can be used for practical purposes, since no experiments, with the exception of perhaps one, have resulted in reductions in water yield with reductions in cover, or increases in yield, with increases in cover.
