| Aim: To be able to (1) apply deterministic hydrological models for calculation of surface water runoff, and (2) use stochastic methods for simulation of inflow to reservoirs as well as for estimation of floods; and (3)calculate flow, transport and water quality in rivers and channels. |
| Contents: Physical description and modelling of rainfall-runoff processes at catchment scale. Different model types and their application potential. Calibration and practical use of a rainfall-runoff model. Decomposition of runoff time series and description of their deterministic and stochastic components. Use of simulated time series for design of a drinking water reservoir. Stochastic models for description of extreme hydrological events (floods and droughts). Set-up, calibration and application of a one-dimensional hydrodynamic model for flow in a river system. Calculation of transport and water quality. |
