Fundamental Studies on Basin Scale Hydrology

Abstract

This entire research effort was built on two mathematical themes which are necessary for a fundamental theoretical understanding of climate-hydrology-geomorphology interactions and for solving the practical problem of predictions from ungaged basins. These themes included (i) and ensemble view or a probabilistic framework, and (ii) self-similarity and scaling in space and/or time. This final report describes the main findings and progress separately under each objective. Keywords: Hydrology; Basin scale hydrology; Drainage networks; Rainfall fields; Streamflow processes; Rain runoff.
