Data-driven models for monthly streamflow time series prediction

TL;DR: The results show that the MA-ANN has a significant improvement on the forecast accuracy compared with the original four models, mainly due to the improvement of correlation between inputs and outputs depending on the moving average operation.

A Multistep Automatic Calibration Scheme for River Forecasting Models

TL;DR: In this paper, a multistep automatic calibration scheme (MACS) was proposed to combine the strengths of the manual and automatic calibration strategies for flood forecasting models, which emulates the progression of steps followed by NWS hydrologists during manual calibration and rapidly provides acceptable results.

Reliability of Model Predictions Outside Calibration Conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the HBV model was applied to four different catchments and differential split-sample testing was used to evaluate model performance for the situation when the model has to be used to simulate runoff during conditions different from those observed during calibration.

Prediction of daily flow duration curves and streamflow for ungauged catchments using regional flow duration curves

TL;DR: In this article, a method is presented to predict flow duration curves (FDCs) and streamflow for ungauged catchments in the Mid-Atlantic Region, USA. Twenty-nine catchments were selected from the Appalachian Platea...

Assessing the groundwater dynamics and impacts of water saving in the Hetao Irrigation District, Yellow River basin

TL;DR: In this article, a lumped parameter groundwater balance model has been developed with this purpose and to assess impacts of various water-saving practices, such as canal lining, upgrading the hydraulic regulation and control structures, improving delivery schedules, and adjusting cropping patterns.
