Masters thesis on rainfall runoff modeling

Rainfall-runoff modeling of small urban watersheds

For a masters degree at the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, I wrote my thesis on rainfall-runoff modeling of small urban watersheds.

Working as a civil engineer, I’d been using several common rainfall-runoff models for infrastructure planning and design. We rarely had data to calibrate these models, and I was curious about how well uncalibrated models could be expected to represent actual stormwater runoff hydrographs. 

Here’s a link to my thesis.
