A hydrological model for predicting runoff from different land use areas
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of land use on catchment runoff is modeled based on the sub-division of the catchment into smaller units by generation of the so-called hydrologically similar units (HSU) or patch types.

A criterion of efficiency for rainfall-runoff models
TL;DR: In this paper, two criteria are proposed for expressing the efficiency of conceptual rainfall discharge models, i.e., the model as a means of converting the input factors into discharge by comparison with a forecast based only on the seasonal regime of the river.

Methods and strategy for modeling daily global solar radiation with measured meteorological data – A case study in Nanchang station, China
TL;DR: In this paper, Chen et al. proposed a strategy for selecting an optimal method for calculating missing daily values of global solar radiation: (1) when sunshine hour and temperature data are available, use Chen model 2; (2) when only sunshine hour data were used, use Bahel model; (3) when temperature, total precipitation and dew point data were available but not sunshine hours, use Wu model 2, when only temperature and total precipitation were available, using Wu model 1; and (4) When only temperature data were not available, and (5) when

Development of the ecohydrological model SWIM for regional impact studies and vulnerability assessment
TL;DR: The SWIM model as mentioned in this paper is a continuous-time semi-distributed ecohydrological model, integrating hydrological processes, vegetation, nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) and sediment transport at the river basin scale.

River flow forecasting through conceptual models part II - The Brosna catchment at Ferbane
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt to model the runoff process on the Brosna catchment is described, and different models are compared and it is found possible to account for about 80 per cent of the initial variance of the discharge by very simple models.
