Zusammenfassung |
A continuous simulation methodology, which incorporates the
quantification of modelling uncertainties, is used for flood frequency
estimation. The methodology utilises the rainfall-runoff model TOPMODEL within
the uncertainty framework of GLUE. Long return period estimates are obtained
through the coupling of a stochastic rainfall generator with TOPMODEL. Examples
of applications to four gauged UK catchments are provided. A comparison with a
traditional statistical approach indicates the suitability of the methodology as
an alternative technique for flood frequency estimation. It is suggested that,
given an appropriate choice of rainfall-runoff model and stochastic rainstorm
generator, the basic methodology can be adapted for use in many other regions of
the world.
