3.1 Determination of parameters and evaluation of the simulation
According to a time-related division, the daily-scale distributed
hydrological model of the Qinhe River Basin was established, and the
measured runoff from Runcheng Station was used to calibrate and test.
Regarding the adjustment of parameters, a reasonable range was selected
for each according to variations in hydrological processes during the
flood season. Table 1 gives the results of GBHM simulation parameters.
A single index is inadequate for the evaluation of results from a
hydrological simulation because it can be affected by the evaluation
method. Consequently, in the present study, the NASH efficiency
coefficient E_N, ratio of absolute error to daily runoff S, and
correlation coefficient P were utilized as indexes to evaluate the
results of the established hydrological model (Lyu et al., 2019). The
established model simulation results and associated reliability checks
are shown in Figure 4.
