abstract

  • The sensitivity and uncertainty estimates of a regional model to a selected set of lumped and distributed parameters is determined using the first order method, the Rosenblueth method and the Latin Hypercube sampling (LHS) method. Evapotranspiration (ET) crop coefficients is identified in the study as the parameter most sensitive to the output, followed by roughness. Singular value decomposition is used to determine possible grouping of parameters.
