The Automatic Calibration of Conceptual Catchment Models Using Derivative‐Based Optimization Algorithms

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the possibility of using derivative-based optimization algorithms for automatic calibration of conceptual rainfall-runoff models with threshold structures and discussed a method for explicit computation of the derivatives based on an analysis of the modality of behavior present in such models.

Tracking the uncertainty in flood alerts driven by grand ensemble weather predictions

TL;DR: In this article, a case study using the TIGGE database for flood warning on a meso-scale catchment (4062 km2) located in the Midlands region of England was presented.

Effect of urbanisation on the water balance of a catchment with shallow groundwater

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of urbanisation on the water balance of a catchment dominated by surface water and groundwater interactions by using a process-based coupled surface Water and groundwater model called MODHMS.

Relationship between catchment characteristics and nutrient concentrations in an agricultural river system

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effects of catchment characteristics and riverine processes on the concentrations of nutrients and total suspended solids (TSS) using data from the outlets of 12 tributaries and 22 main channel sites of a river draining an intensely cropped area of 1088 km2 in SW Finland.

SWAT application in intensive irrigation systems: Model modification, calibration and validation

TL;DR: In this article, a modified SWAT-IRRIG model was used to accurately simulate the main hydrological processes in an agricultural intensive irrigated watershed, and the results indicated that the modified model could reproduce accurately the observed streamflow.
