Development and Evaluation of a Generalized Unit Hydrograph
Abstract
This study is concerned with the development of an unit hydrograph technique based on the Clark Unit Hydrograph Model. The main objectives were to develop a procedure that better estimate the storage coefficient, K for ungaged watersheds. The storage coefficient was determined for approximately 200 rainfall-runoff events throughout the United States. Using these values, a predictive procedure for the storage coefficient and the development of an unit hydrograph is outlined. The method was evaluated by testing the procedure on approximately 50 rainfall-runoff events throughout the United States.
