| 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 for estimation of floods. |
| Contents: Physical description and modelling of rainfall-runoff processes at catchment scale. Different model types and their application potential. Surface water runoff and flood routing. 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). Use of regional information in estimation of design floods. |
