Prediction of Runoff Using Distributed Physics Based Hydrological Model in Burhanpur Catchment, India
Publication: World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2018: Groundwater, Sustainability, and Hydro-Climate/Climate Change
ABSTRACT
Mesoscale hydrological models are required for suitable assessment for prediction of runoff in larger catchments. The objective of present study is to evaluate the performance 2D MIKE SHE model coupled with MIKE SHE/MIKE 11 including the overland flow and channel flow processes in Burhanpur catchment (area of 8995 km2), part of Upper Tapi Basin, India. The Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) Digital Elevation Model (DEM) 30 m topographical data, gridded rainfall (0.250×0.250) data, station based potential evapotranspiration (PET) and IRS P6 LISS-III satellite data of year 2000 (used for land use classification) were taken as distributed input into the model. The model parameters were calibrated on grid size 500 m×500 m using stream flow data of flood year 1994, and further, validated for independent data of flood years 1998 and 2007. The model performance was quantitatively assessed using statistical indicators, RMSE (=168.3– 175.7 m3/s and 20.5–15.9 mm), NSE (=0.69–0.68 and 0.89–0.87), and r (=0.78–0.77 and 0.96–0.94) on daily as well as monthly time scales respectively, during calibration and validation periods. The calibrated model would be useful for prediction of runoff and stage along Tapi River at Hathnur Dam, India.
