Content Generalities on hydrological modellong : objectives, types, application frameworks.
The students learn
- when and how to select a stochastic, a conceptual, a physically-based, a lumped, a semi-distributed and distributed model according to the objective of the study
- what are the issues and methods in calibration and validation of the different types of models
- how to perform sensitivity analyses on calibrated parameter values and/or initial conditions
- what are the principal methods of regional parameterization and what are the issues to be studied in using hydrological model in climate change studies
