Abstract
In the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCSโCN) method, the three levels of antecedent moisture condition (AMC) permit unreasonable sudden jumps in curve numbers, which result into corresponding jumps in the estimated runoff. A few recently developed SCSโCNโbased models obviate this problem, yet they have several limitations. In this study, such a model incorporating a continuous function for antecedent moisture has been presented. It has several advantages over the other existing SCSโCNโbased models. Its application to a large dataset from US watersheds showed to perform better than the existing SCSโCN method and the others based on it. Copyright ยฉ 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
