ESTIMATION OF ANNUAL RUNOFF BY EXPLOITING LONG-TERM SPATIAL PATTERNS AND SHORT RECORDS WITHIN A GEOSTATISTICAL FRAMEWORK

Estimation of annual runoff by exploiting long-term spatial patterns and short records within a geostatistical framework

In this article, we present a Bayesian geostatistical framework that is particularly suitable for interpolation of hydrological data when the available dataset is sparse and includes both long and short records of runoff.A key feature of the proposed framework is that several years of runoff are modelled simultaneously with two spatial fields: one
