Abstract
Hydrological systems present several difficulties for modellers, A dat a-based approach utilizing objective statistical analysis of output an d/or input-output time series behaviour has much to offer, both for un derstanding of the response dynamics of systems and future hypothesis formulation for improved model structure, as well as good predictive c apacity. In this paper, the essential elements and tools of a data-bas ed approach, using an Unobserved Components (UC) model, are presented and illustrated with two examples. (C) 1997 IAWQ.
