This article shows some important scaling aspects that exist in hydrological process grid modelling with GIS, with respect to selecting the optimal grid width. Hydrologically relevant space parameter ยฎelds should often be regarded as selfsimilar fractals for which certain invariance characteristics

A soil-vegetation-atmosphere-transfer scheme, which solves the coupled system of the Surface Energy and Water Balance (SEWAB) equations considering partly vegetated surfaces, is presented. In terms of complexity, SEWAB is similar to many other landยฑsurface schemes with respect to the calculation of
Given the uncertainties associated with GCM modelling of aerosol effects on regional precipitation, a simple model is used to make a preliminary assessment of the inยฏuence of aerosols on rainfall in the Lake Tanganyika region of tropical southern Africa. No attempt will be made to consider the effec
Mathematical models are being used to develop a decision support system for integrated management of the Ythan catchment in NE Scotland. One component of this has involved the development of a distributed catchment-scale hydrological model. The model is based on subsurface ยฏow routing and calculates
## Abstract This paper explores the behaviour and sensitivity of a watershed model used for simulating lateral soil water redistribution and runoff production. In applications such as modelling the effects of landโuse change in small headwater catchments, interactions between soil moisture, runoff
