Comparison of simple runoff models used in Korea for small watersheds

This study analysed runoff characteristics for three small watersheds in th e Su-Young River basin in Korea using the storage function method, the line ar reservoir cascade model, and the discrete linear input-output model. The models performed well for the watersheds. The runoff analysis of the obser ved flood events showed that the storage function method was the most accur ate of the three, and was followed by the linear reservoir cascade model an d the discrete linear input-output model.
