Abstract | Topmodel was developed in the late 1970s by using a simple and effective manner, topographic index, to simulate the topographic influence on runoff generation, and the model is regarded as a semi-distributed hydrological model. The model has been successfully used to simulate the runoff generation for numerous watersheds worldwide. The original Topmodel there are a number of problems with its three fundamental but unrealistic assumptions. In the original Topmodel structure, total runoff only consists of overland flow and baseflow. However, field experiments reveal that near surface lateral flow in the unsaturated soil layer, namely interflow, is a critical hydrological process for runoff generation; unfortunately, the Topmodel hasn't include the simulation of the inter... |
