Characteristics of short interval rainfall for Punpun basin – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

In this study, an attempt has been made to study the characteristics of short interval rainfall data of the Punpun river basin lying in Bihar-Jharkhand, which has been identified as the representative basin for the NIH- Centre for Flood Management Studies, Patna. The estimation of flood peaks for small catchments is required for water resources planning, flood forecasting, design of various drainage systems, flood control and design of hydraulic structures.Read More

Uncertainty analysis - GIUH based Clark model using first order analysis for a catchment of Lower Godavari sub-zone – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

In this study, uncertainty analysis has been carried out for the parameters of the mathematical model developed at the National Institute of Hydrology for estimation of the Clark model parameters using the geomorphological characteristics of an ungauged catchment. The model has been applied for simulation of direct surface runoff (DSRO) hydrographs of the catchment defined by bridge number 807 of the Lower Godavari sub-zone 3 (f).Read More

Estimation of geomorphology parameters for small catchments using GIS – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The report deals with the estimation of geomorphology parameters for small catchments using Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Stream channel morphology is literally the study of stream channel form and structure, but generally it is taken to mean their form and structures regarded as a whole or their collective morphology features. Systematic analysis of morphometry of any drainage basin and its stream system is of great importance in understanding the hydrological behavior of the basin.Read More

Sensitivity analysis of hydrological parameters on flood hydrograph – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

In this study, Clark’s model has been used for derivation of one-hour unit hydrograph for a catchment. The design flood estimate has been obtained using the calibrated parameters of the Clark model together with the time-area diagram corresponding to a 48-hour design storm, which has been temporally distributed and critically sequenced as a single bell, giving due consideration to the ordinates of the unit hydrograph.Read More

Hydrological land use mapping in Narmada basin from Jabalpur to Hoshangabad - A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The study undertakes hydrological land use mapping in Narmada basin from Jabalpur to Hoshangabad by using various methods right from empirical formulae to Soil Conservation Services Curve Number (SCS-CN) method for design discharge computations and continuous runoff modeling. The SCS Curve Number method is used to derive an empirical relationship of the catchment hydrological variables and based on this the dimensional unit hydrograph is prepared and continuous runoff modeling done.Read More

Rainfall-runoff modeling for water availability in Ken river basin using SCS-CN model and remote sensing approach - A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The report is the first of a two-part study on water availability for the Ken river system and attempts to evaluate the direct surface runoff in the smaller basins, where gauging sites are not available. In this study on water availability in Ken river basin, rainfall-runoff modeling in the Sonar, Bearma and Bebas river basins, which are the sub-basins of the Ken river system, have been carried out using the Soil Conservation Services Curve Number (SCS-CN) model.

This is a widely used hydrological model for calculating the runoff using rainfall and Curve Number (CN). The SCS-CN is a quantitative descriptor of the land use, land cover and soil complex characteristics of a watershed. The CN is an index that represents the watershed runoff potential.Read More
