Investigating common assumptions about hydrologic modelling in a large-sample approach

  Dear All,   The Oxford Water Network and Oxford Hydrology Group warmly welcome you to their termly lecture:   Investigating common assumptions about hydrologic modelling in a large-sample approach. Speaker:   Dr Wouter Knoben --Postdoctoral Fellow, University of Saskatchewan, Canada Date:   3 rd   March, 16:00-17:00 GMT Registration Link:   https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/investigating-common-assumptions-about-hydrologic-modelling-in-a-large-samp-tickets-138762372993     About the Event   This study uses 36 conceptual hydrologic models calibrated to streamflow observations in 559 catchments across the United States to investigate differences and similarities in model performance. Central in this talk is the common approach to setting up hydrologic models that uses separate calibration and evaluation periods and a single objective function to quantify model performance. We investigate this topic from multiple angles and show that several...
