Simulation of Observed Topography Using a Physically-based Basin Evolution Model
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resources, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994-10)This work presents a model for basin evolution and a procedure for estimating the parameters of this model to reproduce a given topography. The model is calibrated based on three measures: the slope-area relationship, the ... -

Climatology of Station Storm Rainfall in the Continental United States: Parameters of the Bartlett-Lewis and Poisson Rectangular Pulses Models
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992-05)The parameters of two stochastic models of point rainfall, the Bartlett-Lewis model and the Poisson rectangular pulses model, are estimated for each month of the year from the historical records of hourly precipitation at ...
