FLOOD HYDROGRAPHY SIMULATION FOR URBAN FLOOD FREQUENCY ANALYSIS: THE MODEL

The Stanford Watershed Model was used to generate a runoff file, and UROS4 was programed to route that runoff from an urban watershed subdivided into area, channel, and storage segments. UROS4 simulates an annual series of flood peaks and performs flood frequency analyses at selected study points.
