Abstract

Abstract Conceptual mathematical models are a useful tool for rainfallrunoff modelling of a basin. The calibration of such models has attracted the attention of a number of hydrologists since unique and optimal parameters are difficult to obtain. The calibration of a conceptual model is discussed through a simple conceptual model whose parameters are determined using a search technique. It is shown that the optimization algorithm converges to a global optimum even when the errors in the initial parameters are quite significant and the input environment is noisy.
