Mathematical models of catchment behavior

Abstract

After an examination of trends in the modeling of hydrologic systems, a review of some recent studies is given. The authors' preliminary studies on the feasibility and efficiency of the automatic evaluation of catchment model parameters by use of a digital computer are described and some results presented.
