Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Engineering Hydrology

Abstract:

This paper shows the modeling technique, neural nets, to be successful in predicting the hydrograph of a storm from the hyetographs of storms on the same basin. A root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.36 cfs or less shows the method is worthy of further study.
