Continuous measurement of nitrate concentration in a highly event-responsive agricultural catchment in south-west of France: is the gain of information useful? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A nitrate sensor has been set up to measure every 10 min the nitrate signal in a stream draining a small agricultural catchment dominated by fertilized crops during a 2-year study period (2006–2008) in the south-west of France.

A Review of Event-Based Conceptual Rainfall-Runoff Models: A Case for Australia

open access: yesEncyclopedia
Event-based models focus on modelling of peak runoff from rainfall data. Conceptual models indicate simplified models that provide reasonably accurate answers despite their crude nature.

Design Flood Calculation Model for Extra-Small Watersheds in Ungauged Basin

open access: yesHydrology
Designing floods in ungauged watersheds with limited data is a significant challenge in water conservancy projects. To address this, the method of calculating the design flood peak and flood volume using the weighted average method was proposed, which is

Technical Note: Design flood under hydrological uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016
Abstract. Planning and verification of hydraulic infrastructures demands for a design estimate of hydrologic variables, usually provided by frequency analysis, neglecting hydrologic uncertainty. However, when hydrologic uncertainty is accounted for, the design flood value is no longer a deterministic value, but should be treated as a random variable ...
