The Q model, a Simple Conceptual Model for Runoff Simulation in Catchment Areas

Kvarnäs, Hans

Sammanfattning

A model called the Q model for estimating daily runoff is described. The driving variables are precipitation and mean temperature and the model runs on a daily time step. In order to meet special requirements, the Q model was constructed using elements from different existing models. It was shown that a simpler structure with fewer parameters to calibrate gave equal model performance. The Q model has got an automatic calibration routine which considerably improves both handling and calibration procedures.
