## Abstract This study presents a Geographic Information System (GIS)‐based distributed rainfall‐runoff model for simulating surface flows in small to large watersheds during isolated storm events. The model takes into account the amount of interception storage to be filled using a modified Merriam

✦ Synopsis
A dynamic model of the daily rainfall, runo! and sediment yield process was developed and applied on the upper Himalayan catchment of the Ramganga river, comprising an area of 1010 km. The estimated and predicted values of daily sediment yield from the developed model compared very well with the corresponding measured values of daily sediment yield.

## Abstract The Hydrologic Simulation Programme‐Fortran (HSPF), a hydrologic and water quality computer model, was employed for simulating runoff and sediment yield during the monsoon months (June–October) from a small watershed situated in a sub‐humid subtropical region of India. The model was cal
The characterization of a stream's low-¯ow regime is required for ecological purposes, water quality studies and various other water projects. If observed stream ¯ow records are insucient, low-¯ow characteristics may need to be estimated from simulated daily stream ¯ow time-series. The model employe
## Abstract This paper investigates the effect of introducing spatially varying rainfall fields to a hydrological model simulating runoff and erosion. Pairs of model simulations were run using either spatially uniform (i.e. spatially averaged) or spatially varying rainfall fields on a 500‐m grid. T
## Abstract A model‐based method is proposed for improving upon existing threshold relationships which define the rainfall conditions for triggering shallow landslides but do not allow the magnitude of landsliding (i.e. the number of landslides) to be determined. The SHETRAN catchment‐scale shallow
