Watershed Description: | 80,256 km^2 portion of the Elbe River, located in the eastern part of Germany. |
Calibration Summary: | 1981-88 (12 subwatersheds): daily E = .61 - .89 monthly E = .66 to .94 |
Validation Summary: | 1981-88 (4 subwatersheds): daily E = .72 - .92 monthly E = .81 to .94? |
General Comments: | Daily and monthly graphical comparisons are reported for selected subwatersheds. Graphical results of measured versus simulated water table levels are also shown for one subwatershed. A sensitivity analysis was also performed that consisted of 500 Monte Carlo simulations based on a latin cube method. |
