✦ Synopsis
The primary objective of the study is to propose a strategy for rainfall±runo model calibration at ungauged sites. This strategy comprises two main components: (1) development of the regional analysis method to synthesize the ¯ow duration curves at ungauged sites; and (2) utilization of the synthetic ¯ow duration curves for model calibration. Since the regional analysis method can synthesize the ¯ow duration curves at ungauged sites, the continuous rainfall±runo model coupled with a global optimization method were applied in southern Taiwan using the synthetic ¯ow duration curve as an objective for model calibration. The results reveal that the regional ¯ow duration curve and the strategy for model calibration at ungauged sites have good performances in the study area.
