Science questions
How applicable is the WetSpa model to the DMIP2 basins?
What role does calibration play in realizing improvements?
Why the model generally tends to underestimate high flows, particularly major peaks? Is this a WetSpa model parameter estimation problem?
Can maximization of model prediction for high flows make the calibrated model to bracket high flows, especially major peaks?

Radar-based rainfall data (NEXRAD)
• 160 radars across the US
• generate a one-hour rainfall product
• with a nominal grid size of 4km*4km
• for saving more space the data are stored in binary
• we used a program (written in C) to convert them into ASCII files.
• Using a fortran code hourly rainfall time series extracted.

The aquifer dissipation coefficient (D) is replacing the baseflow recession coefficient (m6) in the original WetSpa model, and to be estimated by model calibration.

Conclusions (1)
WetSpa is well suited for the DMIP2 basins.
Uncalibrated WetSpa perform well good for ungaged modeling
Calibration improves the model performance significantly.
WetSpa forced with radar based rainfall data is able to reproduce streamflow
Although, the calibrated WetSpa model performes well, but it
remains inaccurate for high and low flows.

Page
Conclusions (2)
31
Calibration of the model for the parent basin is no guarantee for good
performance for the subbasins.
The modified WetSpa model is superior compared to the original WetSpa
model.

Recommendations
Perform model applications to cases with a high diversity in
hydrological conditions, such as mountainous watersheds where
snowmelt can cause flooding.
Shorter time interval will improve the capability of the WetSpa
model for subbasin simulations.
If possible, use weather radar precipitation data as it enables to
investigate finer time resolution for predicting flow in small
subbasins.

Page
Recommendations
For model evaluation and development, the probable error from
downscaling, and uncertainty in discharge data should be taken
into account.
