Observed streamflow generation changes: better understanding and modelling

该项目旨在研究干旱期间和干旱后变化的流量响应的驱动因素和触发因素，并开发对变化的流量响应更稳健的建模策略和模型结构。在千年干旱期间，在许多集水区，产生的水流少于预期，水文模型表现不佳。干旱过后，一些集水区的水流生成尚未恢复。该项目希望产生关于干旱变化的径流响应的新知识，并开发策略和模型，以在变化条件期间和之后强有力地模拟径流，这将通过更好地理解和建模变化条件下的径流响应提供重大益处。

This Project aims to investigate drivers and triggers of variable streamflow response during and after drought and develop modelling strategies and model structures more robust to changing streamflow response. In many catchments during the Millennium Drought, streamflow generation was less than expected and hydrologic models performed poorly. After the drought, streamflow generation is yet to recover in some catchments. This Project expects to generate new knowledge about variable streamflow response to drought and develop strategies and models to robustly simulate runoff during and after changed conditions, which should provide significant benefit via better understanding and modelling of streamflow response under changing conditions.
