In this study, screening of the data has been carried out basedon the discordancy measure (D <Subscript>i</Subscript>) in terms of the L-moments. Homogeneity of the region has been tested using the L-moments based heterogeneity measure, H. For computing the heterogeneity measure H, 500 simulations were carried out...</subscript>

The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) watershed model was calibrated and validated for a hilly watershed treated with graded bunding and water-harvesting tank in high rainfall condition of eastern Himalayan range in India. The performance of the model for the treated watershed was...

The hydrological cycle, a fundamental component of climate is likely to be altered in important ways due to climate change. In this study, the historical daily runoff has been simulated for the Chenab River basin up to Salal gauging site using a simple conceptual snowmelt model (SNOWMOD). The...

For estimation of runoff response of an ungauged catchment resulting from a rainfall event, geomorphologicalinstantaneous unit hydrograph (GIUH) approach is getting popularbecause of its direct application to an ungauged catchment. Itavoids adoption of tedious methods of regionalization of...

The average distribution of precipitation provides essential input for understanding the hydrological process. The role of complex topography in mountainous basins makes the spatial distribution of precipitation different than the plain areas. Besides the rugged topography, the Himalayan basins...

Flood problems resulting due to heavy rainfall and drainage congestion are being regularly experienced in plain areas of Bihar, India. Due to this problem, power plant located in Koa catchment, Kahalgaon, Bihar, is faces huge loss at the time of flood. In this paper, the flood-affected areas in...

Multi layer back propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) models have been developed to simulate rainfall-runoff process for two sub-basins of Narmada river (India) viz. Banjar up to Hridaynagar and Narmada up to Manot considering three time scales viz. weekly, ten-daily and monthly with...

An analytical solution of the linearized Boussinesq equation is developed to predict the formation of a ground-water mound in an aquifer system in response to localized time-varying recharge. The recharge is applied from a centrally located circular basin. The solution is obtained using an...

An analytical solution is developed to predict spatio-temporal variation of the water table in a 2-D aquifer system which is receiving transient recharge from an overlying basin of rectangular shape. The transient recharge function is approximated by a number of line segments. Application of the...

The paper examines relative performance of six monthly rainfall-runoff models on 12 catchments located in different agro-climate zones of Central India. Study indicates that a water balance type model can reproduce the catchment behaviour in a better manner as compared to a statistical model and...
