Informationen zum Autor Jozsef Szilagyi, Andras Szollosi Nagy Klappentext This practical guide to real-time streamflow forecasting provides a rigorous description of a coupled stochastic and physically based flow routing method and its practical applications. This method is used in current times of record-breaking floods to forecast flood levels by various Hydrological Forecasting Services. Zusammenfassung A practical guide to real-time streamflow forecasting. It provides a description of a coupled stochastic and physically-based flow routing method and its practical applications. It teaches hydrology and civil engineering students and water-resources practitioners the physical forecasting model. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction. Continuous flow routing techniques.
