Development and test of a spatially distributed hydrological/water quality model for mesoscale watersheds

TL;DR: The watershed model SWIM as discussed by the authors integrates hydrology, vegetation, erosion and nitrogen dynamics at the watershed scale, which can be parametrized using regionally available information using GIS-based tools.

An enhanced extreme learning machine model for river flow forecasting: State-of-the-art, practical applications in water resource engineering area and future research direction

TL;DR: The obtained results reveal that the EELM model is a robust expert model and can be embraced practically in real-life water resources management and river sustainability decisions.

Downscaling of global climate models for flood frequency analysis: where are we now?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the issues of downscaling the results from global climate models (GCMs) to a scale relevant for hydrological impact studies and concluded that if the next generation of GCMs produce more reliable rainfall variance estimates, then more appropriate ways of deriving rainfall scenarios could be developed using weather generators rather than empirical methods.

Sensitivity Analysis, Calibration, and Validations for a Multisite and Multivariable SWAT Model

TL;DR: In this article, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) watershed model was implemented in the Beaver Reservoir Watershed of Northwest Arkansas and a multiobjective function was defined that consisted of optimizing three statistics: percent relative error (RE), Nash-Sutcliffe Coefficient (R NS 2 ), and coefficient of determination (R 2 ).
