Multi-variable calibration of a semi-distributed hydrological model using streamflow data and satellite-based evapotranspiration
Abstract
A procedure is tested to complete energy balance based daily ETa series by MODIS data.The HVB model is calibrated on 2 water balance terms; ETa and stream flow (Q).HBV calibration on Q shows poor ETa results for inter-rainfall and recession periods.Multi-variable (MV) vs. single variable calibration showed best HBV performance.Large volume differences in Q and ETa do not essentially effect MV calibration.
