System for generating long streamflow records for study of floods of long return period
Technical Report

OSTI ID:5894697
A stochastic model for the multi-station generation of hourly rainfall has been developed and tested. The model uses a multivariate-normal background process which is continuous. The process is truncated to yield intermittent output as rainfall. The model results showed excellent agreement between a 1000-yr series and observed rainfall. The synthetic rainfall was used with a hydrologic simulation model to develop a synthetic flow record of 1000-yrs. For a portion of the Russian River near Cloverdale, CA tests of these data indicate that they represent the same population used in calibration of the two models.
