Runoff: recession-based modelling
3 important questions on Runoff: recession-based modelling
Catchments as signal filters - what is meant?
How P translates through all catchment properties to dynamics of streamflow. In a simplified model that captures heterogeneity that nonetheless captures dynamics of streamflow(?).
Simple dynamical systems approach = recession based modelling tool
Make it Q
What is NOT included in formula 2 of Kirchner 2009: Q = f(S)
- Distrubition of stored water does not play a role
- Precipitation is not directly included (although it is highly linked to recession/discharge as can be seen in the hydrograph)
- Formula will not work very well for locations with a lot of runoff
- All water storage/transition processes are uniquely related to storage (although it is NOT assumed they do not exist).
