Distributed rainfall-runoff model simulations are often used to evaluate the impact of changes on the generation of runoff. These models have the advantage of reflecting the effects of land use on spatially distributed model parameters. The article deals with changes in forest associations as a result of global climate changes. In this article the WetSpa model was used for estimating the impact of forest changes on the runoff regime in the Hron and Topla river basins, with an emphasis on the parameterization of the land cover properties in the runoff simulations. The parameters of the model were estimated using climate data and three digital map layers: a land-use map, soil map and digital elevation model. This work contains two land use change scenarios of forest associations and also two scenarios of global climate change. Both types of scenarios of changes were prepared, and the runoff under the new conditions was simulated.

Different approaches for flow-direction determination have been continuously proposed to perform a more realistic simulation of surface runoff, yet the diversity of the existing methods causes significant differences in the extractions of geomorphic parameters as well as the results of rainfall-runoff simulations. In this study, the three most widely used flow-direction methods were separately applied in hydrological models to thoroughly investigate their effects on the simulation output. The results show that the drainage area is a significant factor that affects not only the flow-collecting ability but also the time to peak discharge; however, the definition and calculation of the drainage area become different when the consideration of multiple flow directions is involved in a terrain analysis. This study adopted two area indexes, flow concentration area and flow dispersion area, to understand their consequences in the aspects of the flow volume of simulated hydrograph and the delay of time to peak discharge. The multiple-flow-direction methods show the later time to flow peak and less amount of outflow volume in comparison with the single flow-direction method. By merely extracting two area indexes, a transformation approach is suggested to predict hydrograph shape and to quantify the extent of hydrograph deviations induced by using different flow-direction methods.

This study aimed to assess the suitability of the parameters of a physically based, distributed, grid-based rainfall-runoff model. We analyzed parameter sensitivity with a dataset of eight rainfall events that occurred in two catchments of South Korea, using the Sobol’ method. Parameters identified as sensitive responded adequately to the scale of the rainfall events and the objective functions employed. Parameter sensitivity varied depending on rainfall scale, even in the same catchment. Interestingly, for a rainfall event causing considerable runoff, parameters related to initial soil saturation and soil water movement played a significant role in low flow calculation and high flow calculation, respectively. The larger and steeper catchment exhibited a greater difference in parameter sensitivity between rainfall events. Finally, we found that setting an incorrect parameter range that is physically impossible can have a large impact on runoff simulation, leading to substantial uncertainty in the simulation results. The proposed analysis method and the results from our study can help researchers using a distributed rainfall-runoff model produce more reliable analysis results.

Hourly flood flow estimation for gauged and ungauged catchments is a prerequisite for planning and water management. Various methods have been applied in a multitude of studies to calculate the peak flow for ungauged catchments. However, it is not simple for engineers to use the existing methods in practical applications. An easier method is suggested for this purpose in this study. The authors estimated the relationship between the runoff coefficient, intensity of rainfall, and curve number, and then utilized the relationship to calculated the peak flow using the rational method for ungauged catchments. Rainfall and flood time series for ungauged study catchments were generated by a simple data generation method and a distributed rainfall⁻runoff model. Results showed that the runoff coefficients simulated using the estimated relationship reasonably agree with the runoff coefficients in the studied ungauged catchments. In addition, the peak flow simulated using the rational method and the relationship highly agree with the peak flow in the ungauged catchments. Therefore, the peak flow in ungauged catchments can be easily calculated by this method, which is more pragmatic for engineers.

The hydrological model assessment and development (hydromad) modeling package is an R-based package that can be applied to simulate hydrological models and optimize parameters. As the hydromad package is incompatible with hydrological models outside the package, the parameters of such models cannot be directly optimized. Hence, we proposed a method of optimizing the hydrological-model parameters by combining the executable (EXE) file of the hydrological model with the shuffled complex evolution (SCE) algorithm provided by the hydromad package. A physically based, spatially distributed, grid-based rainfall–runoff model (GRM) was employed. By calibrating the parameters of the GRM, the performance of the model was found to be reasonable. Thus, the hydromad can be used to optimize the hydrological-model parameters outside the package if the EXE file of the hydrological model is available. The time required to optimize the parameters depends on the type of event, even for the same catchment area.

The choice of the computational time step (dt) value and the method for setting dt can have a bearing on the accuracy and performance of a simulation, and this effect has not been comprehensively researched across different simulation conditions. In this study, the effects of the fixed time step (FTS) method and the automatic time step (ATS) method on the simulated runoff of a distributed rainfall–runoff model were compared. The results revealed that the ATS method had less peak flow variability than the FTS method for the virtual catchment. In the FTS method, the difference in time step had more impact on the runoff simulation results than the other factors such as differences in the amount of rainfall, the density of the stream network, or the spatial resolution of the input data. Different optimal parameter values according to the computational time step were found when FTS and ATS were used in a real catchment, and the changes in the optimal parameter values were smaller in ATS than in FTS. The results of our analyses can help to yield reliable runoff simulation results.

Radar systems have been widely employed to measure precipitation and predict flood risks. However, radar as a rainfall measuring device and the produced rainfall estimate contain uncertainties and errors resulting from sources such as mis-calibration, beam blockage, anomalous propagation, and ground clutter. Previously, these radar errors have been individually studied. However, in practical applications, separating and estimating these errors are not possible. In the current study, to analyze the effects of radar rainfall errors, especially for their effect on the peak discharge, through a synthetic runoff simulation, a spatial error model based on univariate Gaussian random numbers was employed. Furthermore, a Monte Carlo simulation, one of the most widely used techniques for intensive simulation toward obtaining practical results, was performed. The results indicated that the variability of the peak discharge increases as the assumed true rainfall increases. In addition, the higher standard deviation of the tested radar rainfall error leads to a higher peak discharge bias. To investigate the cause of this bias, an additional simulation was performed. This simulation revealed that the regression line for the peak discharge corresponding to rainfall amount increases quadratically. The results show that the higher bias is a result of the higher deviation of peak discharges in the cells, with a greater than mean rainfall, even with the same number of cells for lower and higher rainfall amounts.

Hidropixel is a simple distributed rainfall-runoff model used to estimate the direct runoff hydrograph for storm events. First, the Hidropixel model determines the flow travel time from each Digital Elevation Model (DEM) pixel to the basin outlet. Then, excess precipitation is estimated for each DEM pixel using SCS-CN method. The final direct runoff hydrograph for the entire basin is determined by the sum of the flow rate from all contributing pixels during each timestep. In this research, two methods were developed to improve the Hidropixel model: Hidropixel-TUH+ and Hidropixel-DLR. In the first one, a triangular unit hydrograph was estimated for each pixel. It was assumed that the hydrograph reaches the basin outlet after the pixel travel time. In the second method, the flow rate generated by an excess precipitation pulse reaches the basin outlet after the travel time and the final pixel hydrograph pass through a linear reservoir to represent the storage effects. The upper Medway catchment (250 km2), located to the south east of England, was used to test the methods. The results demonstrate that both methods had a good performance. The Hidropixel-DLR predicted well the shape of the hydrograph for most storm events (average Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency of 0.93), accurately reproducing the peak flow rate and the time to peak. Hidropixel-TUH+ performed worse than Hidropixel-DLR, underpredicting the peak flow rate and overpredicting the time to peak, but it also predicted well the hydrograph, with an average efficiency of 0.84. Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES O Hidropixel é um modelo chuva-vazão distribuído relativamente simples, utilizado para estimar o hidrograma do escoamento superficial em eventos de precipitação. No Hidropixel, o tempo de viagem do escoamento até o exutório é determinado para cada pixel do Modelo Digital de Elevação (MDE) que pertence à bacia. Em seguida, a chuva excedente é estimada em cada um desses pixels com base no método SCS-CN. O hidrograma final para toda a bacia é a superposição dos hidrogramas gerados por cada pixel. Neste trabalho foram desenvolvidos dois métodos com o objetivo de incrementar o modelo: Hidropixel-TUH+ e Hidropixel-DLR. No primeiro deles, um hidrograma unitário triangular é estimado para cada pixel, assim como na versão original, mas é transladado até o exutório de acordo com o tempo de viagem do pixel avaliado. No segundo método, a vazão gerada por um bloco de chuva excedente é transladada até o exutório com base no tempo de viagem do pixel e o hidrograma final do pixel é atenuado por um reservatório linear hipotético presente em cada pixel da bacia, de forma a considerar os efeitos do armazenamento temporário da água. Para avaliar os métodos, foi utilizada como área de estudo a bacia hidrográfica do Alto Medway (250 km2), localizada no sudeste da Inglaterra. Os resultados mostraram que os dois métodos melhoraram substancialmente as estimativas de vazão obtidas com o Hidropixel. O Hidropixel-DLR apresentou um bom desempenho na maioria dos eventos (coeficiente de Nash-Sutcliffe médio igual a 0,93) e obteve uma boa performance nas estimativas de vazão de pico e tempo de pico. O Hidropixel-TUH+ também apresentou um bom desempenho (coeficiente de Nash-Sutcliffe médio igual a 0,84), mas ainda assim teve uma performance pior em relação ao Hidropixel-DLR, subestimando as vazões de pico e adiando a ocorrência dessas vazões máximas.

Summary: The aim of this paper is to examine the benefits of updating soil moisture of a distributed rainfall runoff model in forecasting large floods. The updating method uses Ensemble Kalman Filter concepts and involves an iterative similarity approach that avoids calculation of the Jacobian that relates the states and the observations. The soil moisture is updated based on observed runoff in a real-time mode, and is then used as an initial condition for the flood forecasts. The case study is set in the 622km2 Kamp catchment, Austria. The results indicate that the updating procedure indeed improves the forecasts substantially. The mean absolute normalised error of the peak flows of six large floods decreases from 25% to 12% (3h lead time), and from 25% to 19% (48h lead time). The Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency of forecasting runoff for these flood events increases from 0.79 to 0.92 (3h lead time), and from 0.79 to 0.88 (48h lead time). The flood forecasting system has been in operational use since early 2006. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Real time updating of rainfall-runoff (RR) models is traditionally performed by state-space formulation in the context of flood forecasting systems. In this paper, however, we examine applicability of generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation (GLUE) approach in real time modification of forecasts. Real time updating and parameter uncertainty analysis was conducted for Abmark catchment, a part of the great Karkheh basin in south west of Iran. A conceptual-distributed RR model, namely ModClark, was used for basin simulation, such that the basin’s hydrograph was determined by the superposition of runoff generated by individual cells in a raster-based discretization. In real time updating of RR model by GLUE method, prior and posterior likelihoods were computed using forecast errors that were obtained from the results of behavioral models and real time recorded discharges. Then, prior and posterior likelihoods were applied to modify forecast confidence limits in each time step. Calibration of parameters was performed using historical data while distribution of parameters was modified in real time based on new data records. Two scenarios of rainfall forecast including prefect-rainfall-forecast and no-rainfall-forecast were assumed in absence of a robust rainfall forecast model in the study catchment. The results demonstrated that GLUE application could offer an acceptable lead time for peak discharge forecast at the expense of high computational demand. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Taiwan, the continuously increasing levels of rice imports are likely to result in surplus paddy fields. Hence, the surplus paddy fields may be developed into wetlands to increase ground water recharge, provide appropriate environments for wildlife, and most importantly, store flood water. This study developed a hydrological model incorporating the distributed rainfall-runoff model based on the kinematics wave approach and the distributed tank model for simulation, respectively, in mountainous and flat areas. The hydrological model was found to simulate the rainfall-runoff behavior well in the study area. Furthermore, a decision method based on the genetic algorithm concepts was proposed to give policy makers the optimal location and area size of paddy fields to construct wetlands for flood mitigation.

• Remote-sensed soil moisture information is assimilated into a distributed model. • The influence of updating scheme on assimilation results is considered. • The assimilation improves simulated profile soil moisture and streamflow. Profile soil moisture (PSM), which represents soil moisture content over the whole soil layer depth, is a key variable to control plant growth, biological interactions, and streamflow generation, and its information plays a crucial role in hydrological analysis and agricultural water management. Recent studies have assimilated multi-source satellite PSM information into hydrological modelling to more accurately estimate real PSM. However, the PSM estimated from these studies are normally at coarse spatial resolution (i.e., larger than 25 × 25 km2). In this study, the high-resolution (1 × 1 km2) PSM are generated by assimilating multiple remote-sensed PSM data of coarse resolution into the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) based distributed rainfall-runoff model (DDRM) in three catchments (two humid catchments and one semiarid catchment) in China with the grid scale of 1 × 1 km2. The remote-sensed PSM data are pre-processed from two remote-sensed surface soil moisture datasets, i.e. the multi-satellite-retrieved soil moisture dataset released by the Europe Space Agency Climate Change Initiative (ESA CCI), and the soil moisture product from the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite. The influence of remote-sensed datasets selection schemes (i.e. only ESA CCI, only SMAP, and ESA CCI and SMAP combined) on assimilation results are investigated. In the assimilation process, two updating schemes are considered, one is to only update the DDRM's state variable, i.e. PSM, and the other updating both the parameters and PSM variable of the DDRM. Thus, six assimilation scenarios are set in the study, whose performances are compared with the DDRM without assimilation for different time periods, including the whole period, the dormant period and the growing period. Results indicate that in any periods, for any of remote-sensed datasets used for assimilation, either the state update or the parameter-state update can improve the accuracy of high-resolution (1 × 1 km2) PSM simulations by the DDRM. Besides, assimilating the SMAP PSM dataset into the DDRM has the potential to improve streamflow simulations for the three catchments. This study has shown that, by assimilating multi-source remote-sensed PSM into a high spatial resolution distributed hydrological model, i.e. DDRM, estimation of PSM can be improved over both the original remote-sensed PSM and the DDRM-simulated PSM.

2008年7月28日,神戸市灘区を流れる都賀川において,極めて短時間に集中した大雨によって水位が急上昇し,5名の人命が失われた。都賀川は,行政と住民が一体となって市街地の中に潤いのある親水空間を構築することに成功したモデル的な河川であるが,その親水空間において増水事故が発生した。本論では今回の大雨の頻度解析および流出解析を実施し,大雨の頻度とそれが河道に流出する経路を明らかにする。次に,流出解析の結果をもとに水難事故を防止するための技術的課題と対策を考察する。, The sudden water level rising caused by the severe rainstorm at the Toga River in July 2008 claimed five people. To prevent the water accident, a distributed rainfall-runoff analysis is conducted to understand the sudden runoff phenomena. The rainfall-runoff analysis and observed camera images revealed that discharge which caused the sudden water level rising came from the residential area and contribution from the mountainous area was quite small. It is proposed that only to monitor the discharge at the upper reaches is insufficient to prevent the accident; detailed distributed rainfall-runoff analysis with radar rainfall is essential to predict the runoff phenomena at the urbanized small catchment; and to foster the common view to keep off from the river at the alert of heavy rainfall warning is indispensable to avoid the accident.

This study aimed to assess the suitability of the parameters of a physically based, distributed, grid-based rainfall-runoff model. We analyzed parameter sensitivity with a dataset of eight rainfall events that occurred in two catchments of South Korea, using the Sobol' method. Parameters identified as sensitive responded adequately to the scale of the rainfall events and the objective functions employed. Parameter sensitivity varied depending on rainfall scale, even in the same catchment. Interestingly, for a rainfall event causing considerable runoff, parameters related to initial soil saturation and soil water movement played a significant role in low flow calculation and high flow calculation, respectively. The larger and steeper catchment exhibited a greater difference in parameter sensitivity between rainfall events. Finally, we found that setting an incorrect parameter range that is physically impossible can have a large impact on runoff simulation, leading to substantial uncertainty in the simulation results. The proposed analysis method and the results from our study can help researchers using a distributed rainfall-runoff model produce more reliable analysis results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hourly flood flow estimation for gauged and ungauged catchments is a prerequisite for planning and water management. Various methods have been applied in a multitude of studies to calculate the peak flow for ungauged catchments. However, it is not simple for engineers to use the existing methods in practical applications. An easier method is suggested for this purpose in this study. The authors estimated the relationship between the runoff coefficient, intensity of rainfall, and curve number, and then utilized the relationship to calculated the peak flow using the rational method for ungauged catchments. Rainfall and flood time series for ungauged study catchments were generated by a simple data generation method and a distributed rainfall–runoff model. Results showed that the runoff coefficients simulated using the estimated relationship reasonably agree with the runoff coefficients in the studied ungauged catchments. In addition, the peak flow simulated using the rational method and the relationship highly agree with the peak flow in the ungauged catchments. Therefore, the peak flow in ungauged catchments can be easily calculated by this method, which is more pragmatic for engineers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

リアルタイム水文・気象観測データを利用し,広域分布型流出予測モデルを予測エンジンとする広域分布型実時間流出予測システムを開発する。これにより中小河川流域を含む任意の流域の洪水予測情報の実時間での提供を目指す。デモンストレーション流域として淀川流域(枚方上流域7, 281km2)を対象としてシステム開発を進める。予測モデルには著者らが開発を進めている広域分布型流出予測モデルを実時間予測対応に改良したモデルを用いる。リアルタイム水文・気象観測情報は,京都大学防災研究所と国土交通省近畿地方整備局淀川河川事務所との間に開通した光ファイバー専用情報通信網を介して時々刻々収集するとともに,(財)日本気象協会から提供される現況・予測降雨情報を用いる。, A real-time distributed flood prediction system is developed for the Yodo River basin (7, 281km2). The system provides 6 hrs-ahead predictions every hour. The predictions include dam reservoir inflows, outflows and reservoir stages located in the catchment and 1, 707 places of river discharges at about 3 km intervals along the channel networks shown on 1:25000 topographic maps. Topography of the watershed is modeled with 250 m grid DEMs and water movement of mountainous slopes and rivers are routed using the kinematic wave model. To drive the prediction system, 6 hrs distributed rainfall prediction with 2.5 km grid resolution provided from the Japan Weather Association and the Japan Meteorological Agency is used. The interactive real-time web-based data displaying system is also developed.

2004年(平成16年)10月20日に,大阪市付近に上陸した台風23号により由良川沿川の四市一町(福知山市・舞鶴市・綾部市・宮津市・大江町)は,浸水家屋約1700戸,浸水面積2600haに達する大きな被害を受けた。この台風23号は福知山上流域で流域平均2日雨量276mmの降雨をもたらし,福知山水位観測所では,昭和28年に福知山市内で浸水家屋数約3800戸に達する大災害をもたらした台風13号に次ぐ水位が観測された。本研究では,こうした大規模洪水が物理的な背景にもとづいた分布型降雨流出モデルで適切に再現できるかを検討している。ここではまず2004年洪水を分布型流出モデルにより再現した。次に,2004年洪水を再現可能なモデルが過去の小中規模洪水を適切に再現するかを検討した。その結果、同じモデルパラメータの値を用いて,同地域においては中小洪水から計画規模に匹敵するような大洪水まで概ね良好に再現できることがわかった。, This paper analyzes the Yuragawa river flood by Typhoon No.23 on 19-22 October 2004 which brought the large number of casualties and loss of asset especially at the downstream region of the Yuragawa catchment. First, the discharge-hydrograph at Fukuchiyama during the flood is reproduced by a distributed rainfall-runoff model. The simulated discharge-hydrograph after the parameter adjustment shows a good fit with the observed discharge-hydrograph. Afterwards, the model with the same parameter is applied to two past-medium-size floods, which also exhibit the good performance of the model. From these applications, it is clarified that the physically-based distributed rainfall-runoff model has a high potential to reproduce floods of any size in the catchment.

ダム群流況制御の効果を考慮する広域分布型流出予測システムを用いて,淀川流域内の各地点におけるダム群の治水効果を分析する。分析に用いる入力降雨は,各地点上流域で観測された複数の降雨分布を引き伸ばして作成する。全ての降雨を入力し,現存のダム群を考慮する場合としない場合とでそれぞれ流出計算を行い,ピーク流量の比較検討を行う。その結果,ダムが流域の中流部に位置する加茂の地点では,自然流量のピークがある範囲内にあるときにダム群のピーク低減効果が最も有効に発揮され,ピーク流量が計画高水流量程度にまで低減されることがわかった。また,ダムが流域の上流部に位置する納所の地点では,自然流量に関わらずほぼ一定量でピーク流量が低減されることがわかった。, The effects of dams on flood control were analyzed at several locations in the Yodo River basin using a distributed rainfall-runoff prediction system including dam operation models. Input rainfall distributions for the analysis were created by multiplying some factors to ten observed rainfall patterns to adjust them to be 50, 100, 150 and 200 year return periods in terms of two days rainfall in a catchment. The system simulates discharge with and without taking into account the effects of dams for the all created input rainfall. The comparisons of simulated peak discharges indicated that at Kamo, whose catchment contains Takayama dam at the middle reach, there is a certain range of natural peak flow that can be attenuated effectively to the allowable maximum discharge. On the other hand, at Noso, whose catchment contains Hiyoshi dam at the upper reach, peak discharge were attenuated relatively constantly regardless the natural peak flow.

淀川流域全域を対象としてダム群の流況制御過程を考慮した分布型の流出予測システムを開発した。再現計算の結果,ダムが予備放流に続いて洪水調節に入る過程や,他のダムの操作状況に応じて放流量を決定する連携操作の過程など,洪水時の高度な流況制御の過程を定性的・定量的に再現できることを確認した。また,入力降雨を引き伸ばして流出計算を行った結果,1960年には年超過確立1/30の降雨で枚方地点の計画洪水流量を越えるのに対し、ダム群の治水効果が期待できる2000年には1/100の降雨でそれを超過することが明らかとなった。, This paper presents the development of a destributed rainfall-runoff prediction system considering dams' flow regime control in the Yodo River basin. The test simulation results show that the system can reproduce qualitatively and quantitatively dams' flood regime control such as pre-release, peak cut, and group operation. According to multiple simulations by inputting different scales of rainfall, we found that Q30 in 1960 went over the design high water discharge at Hirakata, while Q100 in 2000 went over it by dams' flood control effects.

分布型流出シミュレーションモデルは,流域の空間分布情報をモデルに反映させて流出予測の精度向上を目指すモデルである。分布型モデルの構想は,集中型モデルの枠組みを上回るものであるが,どのような条件(流域面積・地形・土地利用・降雨の時空間分解能など) のもとで分布型モデルが集中型モデルを上回る能力を発揮するのか,不明なままである。そこで,モデルパラメータの空間分布が計算流量に及ぼす影響の感度分析,降水の空間分布が計算流量に及ぼす影響の感度分析を行い,空間分布入力情報が予測精度向上にどの程度寄与するかを評価する。対象流域は九州にある上椎葉ダム上流域(211.0km2) である。解析に用いる降雨データは,地上雨量で補正された江代山レーダーデータ(10 分間隔,1km分解能) を用いる。, A distributed hydrological model aims to improve the hydrologic prediction accuracy by incorporatingthe spatially distributed watershed information. The idea of distributed modeling exceeds the frameworkof lumped modeling, while in what situations distributed models show higher performances than lumpedmodels is unknown. In this study, sensitivity analyses of spatially distributed model parameters andrainfall on runoff simulations in a distributed hydrological model are conducted, and the effectiveness ofspatially distributed input information in distributed hydrological models is assessed. The study area isthe Kamishiiba dam catchment (211 km2) in Kyushu Japan.

flood control ,Ensemble forecast ,distributed rainfall-runoff model - Abstract
A real-time operation method of a multi-purpose reservoir for flood management considering an ensemble streamflow prediction (ESP) is investigated in this study. The ESP is derived by a distributed rainfall-runoff model from an operational ensemble prediction of precipitation. Japan Meteorological Agency’s One-week Ensemble Forecast of precipitation, which is provided every day and has 51 ensemble members of six-hour precipitations for the coming eight days, is employed here. ESPs with 51 members for the coming eight days are calculated from the ensemble predictions of basin precipitation by use of Hydrological River Basin Environment Assessment Model (Hydro-BEAM), a distributed rainfall-runoff model. Reservoir states such as release or storage are then estimated for each ensemble member of the streamflow predictions to decide the amount and the timing of preliminary release for flood protection. Chance and the expected amount of recovery in storage water at the end of the flood event are also estimated for each scenario of reservoir operation to estimate impact of the operation for flood control on that for water supply for the following period in order to help reservoir manager with making a decision on preliminary release considering the prediction and its uncertainty and variety. The presented method was applied to Nagayasuguchi Reservoir, a multi-purpose reservoir for flood and drought managements located in the Naka River basin in Japan, demonstrating the effectiveness and potential to provide useful information for real-time preliminary release operation of reservoirs., Nohara Daisuke, Nishioka Yuya, Hori Tomoharu.

The hydrological model assessment and development (hydromad) modeling package is an R-based package that can be applied to simulate hydrological models and optimize parameters. As the hydromad package is incompatible with hydrological models outside the package, the parameters of such models cannot be directly optimized. Hence, we proposed a method of optimizing the hydrological-model parameters by combining the executable (EXE) file of the hydrological model with the shuffled complex evolution (SCE) algorithm provided by the hydromad package. A physically based, spatially distributed, grid-based rainfall–runoff model (GRM) was employed. By calibrating the parameters of the GRM, the performance of the model was found to be reasonable. Thus, the hydromad can be used to optimize the hydrological-model parameters outside the package if the EXE file of the hydrological model is available. The time required to optimize the parameters depends on the type of event, even for the same catchment area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The choice of the computational time step (dt) value and the method for setting dt can have a bearing on the accuracy and performance of a simulation, and this effect has not been comprehensively researched across different simulation conditions. In this study, the effects of the fixed time step (FTS) method and the automatic time step (ATS) method on the simulated runoff of a distributed rainfall–runoff model were compared. The results revealed that the ATS method had less peak flow variability than the FTS method for the virtual catchment. In the FTS method, the difference in time step had more impact on the runoff simulation results than the other factors such as differences in the amount of rainfall, the density of the stream network, or the spatial resolution of the input data. Different optimal parameter values according to the computational time step were found when FTS and ATS were used in a real catchment, and the changes in the optimal parameter values were smaller in ATS than in FTS. The results of our analyses can help to yield reliable runoff simulation results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Isewan Typhoon ,pseudo global warming ,largest-class flood ,course ensemble typhoon simulation ,distributed rainfall-runoff model - Abstract
A largest-class flood caused by a typhoon under a climate change condition at the Yodo River basin is examined by using rainfall data developed by a physically-based course ensemble typhoon experiment for the Isewan Typhoon in 1959 and a distributed rainfall-runoff model including flood regulation with dam reservoir operation. Simulated flood discharge at the Hirakata station under a pseudo global warming condition is analyzed, and it is found that the peak flood discharge at the Typhoon 18 in 2013 is larger than the largest peak discharge estimated by the Isewan Typhoon course ensemble simulation under a pseudo global warming condition. Magnitudes of floods with different return periods of rainfall patterns for the Isewan Typhoon and the Typhoon 18 in 2013 are also examined for evaluating the effect of flood control by dam reservoirs in the basin.

2008年7月28日,神戸市灘区を流れる都賀川において,極めて短時間に集中した大雨によって水位が急上昇し,5名の人命が失われた。都賀川は,行政と住民が一体となって市街地の中に潤いのある親水空間を構築することに成功したモデル的な河川であるが,その親水空間において増水事故が発生した。本論では今回の大雨の頻度解析および流出解析を実施し,大雨の頻度とそれが河道に流出する経路を明らかにする。次に,流出解析の結果をもとに水難事故を防止するための技術的課題と対策を考察する。, The sudden water level rising caused by the severe rainstorm at the Toga River in July 2008 claimed five people. To prevent the water accident, a distributed rainfall-runoff analysis is conducted to understand the sudden runoff phenomena. The rainfall-runoff analysis and observed camera images revealed that discharge which caused the sudden water level rising came from the residential area and contribution from the mountainous area was quite small. It is proposed that only to monitor the discharge at the upper reaches is insufficient to prevent the accident; detailed distributed rainfall-runoff analysis with radar rainfall is essential to predict the runoff phenomena at the urbanized small catchment; and to foster the common view to keep off from the river at the alert of heavy rainfall warning is indispensable to avoid the accident.

- Abstract
広域分布型流出予測システムと観測流量のデータ同化手法として,河道網に適用したマスキンガムクンジモデルのフィルタリング法を提案する。通常のカルマンフィルタを河道追跡モデルにのみ適用して数時間先の流量を予測する場合,主に斜面部の流出モデルが予測流量に影響を及ぼすので,フィルタリングの効果は小さくなる。それに対し,提案する方法は,斜面部の流出モデルに起因する予測のバイアスを,河道網の状態量と併せて逐次推定することにより,数時間先の予測にもフィルタリングの効果が及ぶ。提案する方法を桂川流域の洪水予測に適用し,バイアスを補正することによって洪水予測精度が向上することを明らかにした。, As a data assimilation method of a distributed rainfall-runoff flood prediction system and river discharge observation data, this study proposes a filtering method of Muskingum Cunge river routing models. Application of the conventional Kalman filter to river routing models is not effective because hillslope models have significant impact on the flood predictions. In order to overcome this problem, the proposed method estimates biases induced by rainfall-runoff models as well as state variables in the filtering algorithm, so that the filtering has effect on the predictions with lead time of few hours. Demonstrated flood predictions at the Katsura river basin show that the bias correction improves the accuracy.

Snow models and gridcell based distributed rainfall-runoff model with 50-m spatial resolution are used for evaluating storage process of the snow pack on mountain slopes as well as flood runoff from a river basin with a catchment area of 100km2. 1.5-2 deg C temperature warming has considerable impact on the peak flow and water storage in this basin.

- Abstract
2004年(平成16年)10月20日に,大阪市付近に上陸した台風23号により由良川沿川の四市一町(福知山市・舞鶴市・綾部市・宮津市・大江町)は,浸水家屋約1700戸,浸水面積2600haに達する大きな被害を受けた。この台風23号は福知山上流域で流域平均2日雨量276mmの降雨をもたらし,福知山水位観測所では,昭和28年に福知山市内で浸水家屋数約3800戸に達する大災害をもたらした台風13号に次ぐ水位が観測された。本研究では,こうした大規模洪水が物理的な背景にもとづいた分布型降雨流出モデルで適切に再現できるかを検討している。ここではまず2004年洪水を分布型流出モデルにより再現した。次に,2004年洪水を再現可能なモデルが過去の小中規模洪水を適切に再現するかを検討した。その結果、同じモデルパラメータの値を用いて,同地域においては中小洪水から計画規模に匹敵するような大洪水まで概ね良好に再現できることがわかった。, This paper analyzes the Yuragawa river flood by Typhoon No.23 on 19-22 October 2004 which brought the large number of casualties and loss of asset especially at the downstream region of the Yuragawa catchment. First, the discharge-hydrograph at Fukuchiyama during the flood is reproduced by a distributed rainfall-runoff model. The simulated discharge-hydrograph after the parameter adjustment shows a good fit with the observed discharge-hydrograph. Afterwards, the model with the same parameter is applied to two past-medium-size floods, which also exhibit the good performance of the model. From these applications, it is clarified that the physically-based distributed rainfall-runoff model has a high potential to reproduce floods of any size in the catchment.
