Calculation of Snow-melt Runoff to Three Dam Reservoirs of Kitakaii River

Abstract

Calculation of snow-melt runoff to Shijyu-shida, Gosyo and Yuda dam reservoirs was performed. This numerical model requires only daily air temperature and precipitation at a representative point in the basin as input data. 8 parameters in the model were chosen from past meteorological and hydrological data, and calculated hydrographs show a good coincidence with observed runoff at these dams. Improvement of methods to determine these parameters is left for the future research.
