Ibicui River Basin OPERATION IN QUASI-REAL TIME
CONCLUSIONS & FUTURE ACTIONS (1) • Reliable operational forecast tool with input data readily downloadable from the Internet. • Sparseness of meteorological networks and unavailability of field records in real time are not a limiting factor for operational hydrology. • The model represents faithfully the physical processes and the daily water balance. • It simulated adequately the streamflows, both during floods and lowwaters. • Reduced peak error and very well resolved timing, important for operational forecasting of flood waves.
CONCLUSIONS & FUTURE ACTIONS (2) • Very fine agreement also in low flow regimes. Total volume, well quantified. • Therefore, it is concluded that the model is suitable for operational use. • Future effort: a better representation of the spatial distribution of the daily precipitation field. • Future effort: implementation in othercatchments in the Del Plata Basin. • Further research: implementation of the updating mode, leading to improved forecasts.
