Generation Of Synthetic Design Storms For The Upper Thames River Basin, Predrag Prodanovic, Slobodan P. Simonovic Nov 2004

Generation Of Synthetic Design Storms For The Upper Thames River Basin, Predrag Prodanovic, Slobodan P. Simonovic

Water Resources Research Report

The purpose of this report is to summarize methods available in the literature that synthetically generate rainfall hyetographs (plots of rainfall intensity vs. time). The outputs of selected methods are to be used as inputs to a hydrological model of the Upper Thames River basin, to be used for determination of hydrologic risks and extremes.


Calibration, Verification And Sensitivity Analysis Of The Hec-Hms Hydrologic Model, Juraj Cunderlik, Slobodan P. Simonovic Aug 2004

Calibration, Verification And Sensitivity Analysis Of The Hec-Hms Hydrologic Model, Juraj Cunderlik, Slobodan P. Simonovic

Water Resources Research Report

The main objective of this report is to describe the calibration, verification, and sensitivity analysis of the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) on the data from the Upper Thames River basin (UTRb) study area. The HEC-HMS model was chosen to be the most appropriate hydrologic modeling tool for achieving the goals set in the Canadian Foundation for Climatic and Atmospheric Sciences (CFCAS) funded project “Assessment of Water Resources Risk and Vulnerability to Changing Climatic Conditions” (“project” hereafter), (Cunderlik and Simonovic, 2003). The calibration, verification and sensitivity analysis of the HMS model …


Selection Of Calibration And Verification Data For The Hec-Hms Hydrologic Model, Juraj Cunderlik, Slobodan P. Simonovic Jan 2004

Selection Of Calibration And Verification Data For The Hec-Hms Hydrologic Model, Juraj Cunderlik, Slobodan P. Simonovic

Water Resources Research Report

The main purpose of this report is to summarize the strategy applied for selecting the hydro-climatic data, which will be used for the calibration and verification of the US-ACE Hydrologic Engineering Center’s Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS). The HEC-HMS model was chosen to be the most appropriate hydrologic modeling tool for achieving the goals set in the Canadian Foundation for Climatic and Atmospheric Sciences (CFCAS) funded project “Assessment of Water Resources Risk and Vulnerability to Changing Climatic Conditions” (“project” hereafter), (Cunderlik, 2003).
