Comparative evaluation of SCS-CN-inspired models in applications to classified datasets

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2010
One of the popular methods for estimating the depth of surface runoff for a given rainfall event is the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method. Of late, several inconsistencies in its soil moisture accounting procedure have been pointed out by Michel et al. (2005), and a more rational procedure suggested.

Field Applicability of the SCS-CN-Based Mishra?Singh General Model and its Variants

Water Resources Management, 2005
The general soil conservation service curve number (SCS-CN)-based Mishra and Singh (Mishra and Singh, 1999, J. Hydrologic. Eng. ASCE, 4(3), 257–264) model and its eight variants were investigated for their field applicability using a large set of rainfall-runoff events, derived from a number of U.S.

Application of the SCS-CN Model to Runoff Estimation in a Small Watershed with High Spatial Heterogeneity

Pedosphere, 2011
For reasons of simplicity, the most commonly used hydrological models are based on the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) model, which is probably a good choice for the estimation of runoff on the Loess Plateau of China; however, the high spatial heterogeneity, mainly caused by a fragmented landform and variations in soil type, may limit ...

A generalized relation between initial abstraction and potential maximum retention in SCS‐CN‐based model

International Journal of River Basin Management, 2006
Abstract Soil Conservation Service curve number (SCS‐CN) method estimates direct surface runoff from given amount of rainfall. The initial abstraction coefficient (λ), which largely depends on the climatic conditions, is taken as a constant value of 0.2 in the method and it is perhaps the most ambiguous parameter to be considered for modification ...

Reliability assessment of water structures subject to data scarcity using the SCS-CN model

Hydrological Sciences Journal, 2016
ABSTRACTWhen discharge measurements are not available, design of water structures relies on using frequency analysis of rainfall data and applying a rainfall–runoff model to estimate a hydrograph. The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) method estimates the design hydrograph first through a rainfall–runoff transformation and next by propagating runoff to ...

Geospatial estimation of soil moisture in rain-fed paddy fields using SCS-CN-based model

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2008
Paddy fields are characterized by standing water and saturation condition during the entire crop growth period. However, in sub-humid and semi-arid areas, scarce rainfall and intermittent dry spells often cause soil moisture depletion resulting in ...

SCS-CN-based modeling of sediment yield

Journal of Hydrology, 2006
Coupling the soil conservation service curve number (SCN-CN) method with the universal soil loss equation (USLE), a new model is proposed for the estimation of the rainstorm-generated sediment yield from a watershed. The coupling is based on three hypotheses: (1) the runoff coefficient is equal to the degree of saturation, (2) the potential maximum ...

Evaluation of the SCS-CN-Based Model Incorporating Antecedent Moisture

Water Resources Management, 2004
Using a large set of rainfall-runoff data from 234 small to large watersheds from USA, this paper evaluates the modified version of the [Mishra, S. K. and Singh, V. P., 2002a, ‘SCS-CN-based hydrologic simulation package’, in V. P. Singh and D. K. Frevert (eds), Mathematical Models in Small Watershed Hydrology, Water Resources Publications, Chap. 13, pp.

Evaluation of AMC-Dependent SCS-CN-Based Models Using Watershed Characteristics

Water Resources Management, 2006
This paper presents a quantitative evaluation of the existing Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) model, its variants, and the modified Mishra and Singh (MS) models for their suitability to particular land use, soil type and combination thereof using a large set of rainfall-runoff data from small to large watersheds of the U.S.A.
