Advances in Streamflow Forecasting: From Traditional to Modern
Approaches covers the three major data-driven approaches of streamflow
forecasting including traditional approach of statistical and
stochastic time-series modelling with their recent developments,
stand-alone data-driven approach such as artificial intelligence
techniques, and modern hybridized approach where data-driven models
are combined with preprocessing methods to improve the forecast
accuracy of streamflows and to reduce the forecast uncertainties.
This book starts by providing the background information, overview,
and advances made in streamflow forecasting. The overview portrays the
progress made in the field of streamflow forecasting over the decades.
Thereafter, chapters describe theoretical methodology of the different
data-driven tools and techniques used for streamflow forecasting along
with case studies from different parts of the world. Each chapter
provides a flowchart explaining step-by-step methodology followed in
applying the data-driven approach in streamflow forecasting.
This book addresses challenges in forecasting streamflows by abridging
the gaps between theory and practice through amalgamation of
theoretical descriptions of the data-driven techniques and systematic
demonstration of procedures used in applying the techniques. Language
of this book is kept simple to make the readers understand easily
about different techniques and make them capable enough to
straightforward replicate the approach in other areas of their
interest.
This book will be vital for hydrologists when optimizing the water
resources system, and to mitigate the impact of destructive natural
disasters such as floods and droughts by implementing long-term
planning (structural and nonstructural measures), and short-term
emergency warning. Moreover, this book will guide the readers in
choosing an appropriate technique for streamflow forecasting depending
upon the given set of conditions.
