Exploration of warm-up period in conceptual hydrological modelling

KB Kim, HH Kwon, D Han - Journal of Hydrology, 2018 - Elsevier
One of the important issues in hydrological modelling is to specify the initial conditions of the
catchment since it has a major impact on the response of the model. Although this issue …

Evaluation of rainfall–runoff model performance under non-stationary hydroclimatic conditions
