CE 668 Advanced Methods in Hydrologic System Analysis

Principles in analysis of dynamic systems with specific emphasis on hydrologic model building. Variety of techniques in hydrologic system analysis with mathematical formulation, development and use of computer-based models for solving scientific and engineering problems are discussed. Among the topics presented will be the discussion of optimization theory, artificial intelligence, model calibration (parameter estimation), ensemble (probabilistic) forecasting, data assimilation and uncertainty analysis.
