Calibration of the US Geological Survey National Hydrologic Model in Ungauged Basins Using Statistical At-Site Streamflow Simulations
In the absence of measured streamflow, statistically simulated daily streamflow can be used to support the ability of physical models to represent hydrologic processes at ungauged locations. This study determined the feasibility of using statistical simulations in place of measured streamflow to calibrate physical models in ungauged basins. Daily streamflow was simulated at each of the 1,410 gauged watersheds using a cross-validated implementation of pooled ordinary kriging (POK). In this manner, the streamflow at each gauge was simulated as if no at-site streamflow information were available. The National Hydrologic Model application of the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System was then calibrated through two separate procedures: (1) with measured streamflow, and (2) with statistically simulated streamflow in lieu of measured streamflow. Calibrating with statistically simulated streamflow produced performance within 23% of the performance of applications with knowledge of at-site measurements. Furthermore, statistically generated streamflow produced accurate timing information, which, when combined with alternative data sets (e.g., evapotranspiration, recharge, and so forth), can be used to improve representation of hydrologic processes at ungauged locations.
