MODELLING AND SIMULATION OF VOLUMETRIC RAINFALL FOR A CATCHMENT IN THE MURRAY–DARLING BASIN

We discuss modelling and simulation of volumetric rainfall in a catchment of the Murray–Darling Basin – an important food production region in Australia that was seriously affected by a recent prolonged drought. Consequently, there has been sustained interest in development of improved water management policies. In order to model accumulated volumetric catchment rainfall over a fixed time period, it is necessary to sum weighted rainfall depths...
