  2. HBV hydrology model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HBV_hydrology_model

    The total flow generated from a certain rain event is the sum of the 3 flows. Calibration. The result of the model are later compared to the actual measured flow values and Nash-Sutcliffe parameter is used to calibrate the model by changing the different parameters. The model has 9 parameters in total: TT, Cmelt, FC, C, PWP, L, K1, K2, Kd.

  3. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A hydrograph is a graph showing the rate of flow versus time past a specific point in a river, channel, or conduit carrying flow. The rate of flow is typically expressed in units of cubic meters per second (m³/s) or cubic feet per second (cfs). Hydrographs often relate changes of precipitation to changes in discharge over time. [1]

  4. Discharge (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_(hydrology)

    A hydrograph is a graph showing the rate of flow (discharge) versus time past a specific point in a river, channel, or conduit carrying flow. The rate of flow is typically expressed in units of cubic meters per second (m³/s) or cubic feet per second (cfs). Hydrographs often relate changes of precipitation to changes in discharge over time.

  5. Routing (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_(hydrology)

    Flood routing is a procedure to determine the time and magnitude of flow (i.e., the flow hydrograph) at a point on a watercourse from known or assumed hydrographs at one or more points upstream. The procedure is specifically known as Flood routing, if the flow is a flood. [14] [15] After Routing, the peak gets attenuated & a time lag is ...

  6. Hydrological model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrological_model

    A hydrologic model is a simplification of a real-world system (e.g., surface water, soil water, wetland, groundwater, estuary) that aids in understanding, predicting, and managing water resources. Both the flow and quality of water are commonly studied using hydrologic models.

  7. Water metering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

    A velocity-type meter measures the velocity of flow through a meter of known internal capacity. The speed of the flow can then be converted into a volume of flow to determine the usage. There are several types of meters that measure water flow velocity, including jet meters (single-jet and multi-jet), turbine meters, propeller meters and mag ...

  8. Hydrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrology

    Rain falling over a drainage basin in Scotland.Understanding the cycling of water into, through, and out of catchments is a key element of hydrology. Hydrology (from Ancient Greek ὕδωρ (húdōr) 'water' and -λογία () 'study of') is the scientific study of the movement, distribution, and management of water on Earth and other planets, including the water cycle, water resources, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_gauge

    Standard National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration rain gauge. A rain gauge which is also known as udometer, pluviometer, ombrometer, and hyetometer, is an instrument used by meteorologists and hydrologists to gather and measure the amount of liquid precipitation in a predefined area, over a set period of time.
