Abstract

This paper describes a new empirical watershed model, the prime feature of which is its parsimony. It involves only three free parameters, a characteristic unparalleled by continuous process models able to work on a wide array of catchments. In spite of its crude simplicity, it achieved, on average, worthwhile results on a set of 140 French catchments and overwhelmingly outperformed a linear model involving 16 parameters. It performed roughly as well as a conceptual model with five free parameters, derived from the well-known TOPMODEL.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
