A Distributed Rainfall-Runoff Model

  • Conference paper
Finite Elements in Water Resources

Abstract

Design, construction and operation of hydraulic works always re quire a previous determination of a maximum flood for a given frequency. When it is desired to forecast changes on the output hydrographs due to alterations in the morphology or land use of the watersheds, the methods at present available are, in general, of limited applicability.
