Tsallis Entropy-Based Flow Duration Curve [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the ASABE, 2014
Abstract. The flow duration curve (FDC) is employed for addressing a multitude of problems in water resources engineering, such as prediction of the distribution of future flows, forecasting of future recurrence frequencies, comparison of watersheds, construction of load duration curves, and determination of low flow thresholds.

A geostatistical approach to estimate flow duration curve parameters in ungauged basins

open access: yesApplied Water Science, 2023
Flow duration curve represents the percentage of time that a river flow is equal to or greater. As these curves provide a direct response to the behavior of water resources in a basin, which is used widely in hydropower projects, it is important to ...

Classifying low flow hydrological regimes at a regional scale [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011
The paper uses a simple water balance model that partitions the precipitation between actual evapotranspiration, quick flow and delayed flow, and has sufficient complexity to capture the essence of climate and vegetation controls on this partitioning ...

Investigating the Impact of Drought on Flow Duration Curve in Karst Catchments (Case study: Kaka-Reza Catchment) [PDF]

open access: yesمحیط زیست و مهندسی آب, 2021
Flow duration curve (FDC) is one of the most appropriate criteria for recognizing the hydrological response of catchments. Understanding the interaction of drought phenomenon along with FDC indices is a suitable tool for optimal water resources ...

A stochastic index flow model of flow duration curves [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2004
Annual flow duration curves (AFDCs) are used increasingly because unlike traditional period of record flow duration curves (FDCs), they provide confidence intervals for the median AFDC, they enable one to assign return periods to individual AFDCs, and they offer opportunities for developing a generalized stochastic model of daily streamflow.

Regionalization of flow duration curves in Colombia

open access: yesHydrology Research, 2022
Abstract It is essential to know the streamflow behavior in hydrological basins for appropriate water resource planning and management. In Colombia, where there is a considerable water resource potential, there is a need to generate hydrological modeling for many ungauged catchments.

The construction of the flow duration curve and the regionalization parameters analysis in the northwest of China

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2021
Daily runoff is the data to estimate the water resources in a river. In many catchments, the daily discharge is not well observed. Flow duration curve is an important characteristic of daily runoff, and important for the design of water conservancy ...

Uncertainties in Flow Duration Curves in anthropized catchments [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Ecology and The Environment, 2015
Flow Duration Curves (FDC) are a traditional tool in water resources management. Their applications range from environmental protection planning to hydrosystems design. In many problems natural FDC are needed, that is curves referring to river regimes before alterations due to anthropic water uses.

Entropy Parameter M in Modeling a Flow Duration Curve

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
A flow duration curve (FDC) is widely used for predicting water supply, hydropower, environmental flow, sediment load, and pollutant load. Among different methods of constructing an FDC, the entropy-based method, developed recently, is appealing because ...
