The thesis adresses the water balance modeling issue by studying and comparing the performances of 5 water balance models at seasonal and annual time scale on 39 small/medium catchments spreaded throughout the eastern US. Two PET datasets are compared as well as the implication of inculuding the surface runoff by means of rainfall filtering. The final results is to obtain streamflow PDF in udgauged section by coupling WB models to a geomorphic model able estimate streamflow recessions

Abstract

The thesis adresses the water balance modeling issue by studying and comparing the performances of 5 water balance models at seasonal and annual time scale on 39 small/medium catchments spreaded throughout the eastern US. Two PET datasets are compared as well as the implication of inculuding the surface runoff by means of rainfall filtering. The final results is to obtain streamflow PDF in udgauged section by coupling WB models to a geomorphic model able estimate streamflow recessions
