Calibration of hydrological model parameters for ungauged catchments
TL;DR: In this paper, a different approach for the transfer of entire parameter sets from one catchment to another is discussed, where parameter sets are considered as tranferable if the corresponding model performance (defined as the Nash-Sutclife efficiency) on the donor catchment is good and the regional statistics: means and variances of annual discharges estimated from catchment properties and annual climate statistics for the recipient catchment are well reproduced by the model.

A spatially distributed energy balance snowmelt model for application in mountain basins
TL;DR: In this article, a coupled energy and mass-balance model is used to simulate the development and melting of the seasonal snow cover in several mountain basins in California, Idaho, and Utah.

Using the USLE: Chances, challenges and limitations of soil erosion modelling
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the most widely used approaches during an 80-year history of erosion modelling are Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE)-type algorithms which have been applied in 109 countries.

Rainfall–runoff modeling using artificial neural network coupled with singular spectrum analysis
C.L. Wu,C.L. Wu,Kwok Wing Chau +2 more
TL;DR: This paper attempts to eliminate the lag effect from two aspects: modular artificial neural network (MANN) and data preprocessing by singular spectrum analysis (SSA) and shows that MANN does not exhibit significant advantages over ANN, and it is demonstrated that SSA can considerably improve the performance of prediction model and eliminate thelag effect.
