Deterministic Methods in Systems Hydrology presents the basic
theory underlying the multitude of parameter-rich models which
dominate the hydrological literature. Its objectives are to
introduce the elements of systems science as applied to
hydrological problems; to present flood prediction and flood
routing as problems in linear systems theory, clarifying the basic
assumptions and evaluating their accuracy; and to review and to
evaluate some deterministic models of components of the
hydrological cycle, with a view to assembling the most appropriate
model of catchment response, for a particular problem in applied
hydrology. The material is developed in two parts: the first four
chapters present the systems viewpoint, the nature of hydrological
systems, some systems mathematics and their application to direct
storm runoff. The final four chapters cover linear conceptual
models of direct runoff, the fitting of conceptual models to data,
simple models of subsurface flow and non-linear deterministic
models.
