Hydrological Models

Abstract

Hydrological modelling can be characterized as the process of abstracting real hydrological features through small-scale physical models, mathematical analogs, or computer simulations (Chen et al. 2021). Hydrologic models can be separated into several classes according to model structures and spatial processes. In this chapter, after a discussion about the history of these models, a concise glance at the impacts of clime change is examined. Finally, in the last part, the structure of some recognized hydrological models is explained.
