Simulação de escoamento superficial em bacias representativas na Amazônia

Concpetual models developed to simulate runoff from rainfall, based on numerical technics and optimization processes, make it possible to identify the main factors that regulate rainfall-runoff relationship in a watershed. It was adapted a model consisting of a cascade of equal reservoirs in serie to describe the watershed unit hydrograph. The parameters optimization that characterizes the model was done by the Newton-Raphson Method. Al the hydrological informations was collected in the Representative Watershed of Taruma-Acu River, Km 60 of Manaus — Caracarai Road and corresponds to the period of Sept-1979 to Sept-1980.
