| Abstract: | Most mathematical models used in Australia to simulate runoff events from catchments were developed in the 1960s and 1970s. Models in use include the ILSAX model for urban catchments, and runoff routing models such as RORB, RAFTS and WBNM for both urban and rural catchments. This thesis describes a new model (the Rainfall Runoff Routing or RRR model) developed to overcome the limitations of internal consistency and the single runoff process. The application of the new model is verified on a range of catchments in South Australia, New South Wales and the Northern Territory, and the model is applied successfully to two catchments having mixed urban and rural use. |
