7 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Rainfall Joint variation of rainfall and streamflow in a catchment Rainfall-Runoff relationships Stream Flow Rain Gauge Stream Gauge

8 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Real-time Flood Forecasting A TOWN To forecast water levels at A, with sufficient lead time Water level at A: Function of rainfall in the catchment upstream, evaporation, infiltration, storage, vegetation and other catchment characteristics.

9 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Multi-reservoir systems Flood forecasting Intermediate catchment flows Long-term operation of the system

10 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Reliability of Meeting Future Demands How often does the system Fail to deliver? Resiliency of the System How quickly can the system recover from failure? Vulnerability of the system Effect of a failure (e.g., epected flood damages; deficit hydropower etc.)

11 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Inflow RESERVOIR D/S Flow Release Recharge AET Canal Recharge IRRIGATED AREA AQUIFER Rainfall GW Pumping Net outflow Conjunctive use of surface and ground water

12 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Water Quality in Streams Governed by : Streamflow, Temperature, Hydraulic properties, Effluent discharges, Non-point source pollution, Reaction rates.. Non-point Source Pollution

13 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications F Flood frequency analysis F return period of critical events F Probable Maimum Flood F Intensity-Duration-Frequency relationships, F Run-lengths : intervals between rainy days F Time series, data generation, flow forecasting

14 Stochastic Hydrology - Applications Flow Q 1 F Joint variation of flows in two or more streams F Urban floods Estimates of design rainfall intensity based on probability concepts F Spatial variation in aquifer parameters F Uncertainties introduced by climate change Likely changes in frequencies and magnitudes of floods & droughts. Likely changes in stream flow, precipitation patterns, recharge to ground water

15 Random Variable Real-valued function defined on the sample space. Y Element s in the sample space Y(s) Y is a Random Variable Sample space of an eperiment Possible real values of Y Intuitively, a random variable (RV) is a variable whose value cannot be known with certainty, until the RV actually takes on a value; In this sense, most hydrologic variables are random variables

16 Random Variable RVs of interest in hydrology Rainfall in a given duration Streamflow Soil hydraulic properties (e.g. permeability, porosity) Time between hydrologic events (e.g. floods of a given magnitude) Evaporation/Evapotranspiration Ground water levels Re-aeration rates

17 Random Variable Any function of a random variable is also a random variable. For eample, if X is a r.v., then Z = g(x) is also r.v. Capital letters will be used for denoting r.v.s and small letters for the values they take e.g. X rainfall, = 30 mm Y stream flow, y = 300 Cu.m. We define events on the r.v. e.g. X=30 ; a <Y <b We associate probabilities to occurrence of events represented as P[X=30], P[a<Y<b] etc.

18 Discrete & Continuous R.V.s Discrete R.V.: Set of values a random variable can assume is finite (or countably infinite). No. of rainy days in a month (0,1,2.30) Time (no of years) between two flood events (1,2.) Continuous R.V.: If the set of values a random variable can assume is infinite (the r.v. can take on values on a continuous scale) Amount of rainfall occurring in a day Streamflow during a period Flood peak over threshold Temperature

19 Probability Distributions Discrete random variables: Probability Mass Function p( i ) > 0 ; Σ p( i ) = 1 i p( i ) = P [X = i ] p( i ) n-1 n.

20 Probability Distributions Cumulative distribution function : discrete RV F() =Σ p( i ) i < 1.0 p( 1 ) p( 1 )+p( 2 ) n-1 n.

21 P[X = i ] = F( i ) F( i-1 ) The r.v., being discrete, cannot take values other than 1, 2, 3. n ; P[X = ] = 0 for 1, 2, 3. n Some times, it is advantageous to treat continuous r.v.s as discrete rvs. e.g., we may discretise streamflow at a location into a finite no. of class intervals and associate probabilities of the streamflow belonging to a given class

22 Continuous R.V.s pdf Probability Density Function f() cdf Cumulative Distribution Function F() Any function satisfying f() > 0 and f() f( ) = 1 can be a pdf a b pdf is NOT probability, but a probability density & therefore pdf value can be more than 1

23 Continuous RVs f() P [ < X < +d] d P[ < X + d] f ( ) = lim where f ( ) d = 1 d d

24 Continuous RVs PDF Probability Density Function (Probability mass per unit ) f() P [ 1 <X< 2 ] = 2 1 f( ) d 1 2

25 Continuous RVs P[ 1 < X < 2 ] = 2 1 f( ) d P[ 1 < X < 2 ] = F( 2 ) F( 1 ) F() 1 2 PDF CDF

26 f() P[a < X < b] is probability that takes on a value between a and b equals area under the pdf between a and b P[a < X < b] = F(b) F(a) a P[a<X<b] b b a b = f( ) d f( ) d= f( ) d a

27 F () = P[X < ] = f( ) d Continuous RVs f( ) = df( ) d f() F() P[X < 1 ] 1 1 PDF CDF

28 Cumulative Distribution Function F () = P[X < ] = f( ) d f() Area under pdf = F() a a a f( ) d Ma. value= 1 P[X<a] = = Area under the pdf up to a

29 For continuous RVs, probability of the RV taking a value eactly equal to a specified value is zero That is P[X = ] = 0 ; X continuous P[X = d] = P[d < X < d] = f( ) d= 0 P [- Δ < X < + Δ] 0 Because P[X = a] = 0 for continuous r.v. d d P[a < X < b] = P[a < X < b] = P[a < X < b] = P[a < X < b]

30 f() 1-P[X<a] P[X > a] = a = f ( ) d f ( ) d a f( ) d a = 1 F(a) = 1 P[X < a] P[ > a] = 1 P[ < a] Area indicates P[X>a]

31 Mied Distributions P [X = d] 0 A finite probability associated with a discrete event X = d At other values that X can assume, there may be a continuous distribution. e.g., probability distribution of rainfall during a day: there is a finite probability associated with a day being a non-rainy day, i.e., P [X=0], where is rainfall during a day; and for 0, the r.v. has a continuous distribution ;

32 Mied Distributions P[X=d] f 1 () f 2 () X=d d f ( ) d+ P = d + f ( ) d= 1.0 [ ] 1 2 d

33 1.0 F() ΔF=P[X=d] d In this case, P [X < d] P [X < d]

34 f() Distribution of rainfall during a day P[X=0] f(), > F() 0 F(0) = P [X < 0] = P(X=0), in this case.

35 Eample Problem f() = a. 2 0 < < 4 = 0 otherwise 1. Determine the constant a f ( ) d = 1 a d 3 a 3 2. = = 1 Gives a = 3/64 and f() = 3 2 /64; 0 < < 4

36 2. Determine F() Then, for eample, F ( ) f( d ) f( d ) = = = d 3 3 = F ( ) = P[X 3] = F( 3) = =

37 P[X < 4] = F(4) = 1.0 P[1 < X < 3] = F(3) - F(1) = 26/64 P [X>6] From the definition of the pdf, this must be zero P [X>6] = 1 - P[X < 6] = 1 f( ) d+ f( ) d+ f( ) d 0 4 = 1 [ ] = 0

38 Eample problem Consider the following pdf 1 /5 f() = e 5 >0 1. Derive the cdf 2. What is the probability that lies between 3 and 5 3. Determine such that P[X < ] = Determine such that P[X > ] = 0.75

39 1. CDF: F ( ) f( d ) f( d ) = = = 2. P[3< X < 5] = F(5) - F(3) e = e = = 0.18 /5 /5 F () = 1 e d 0 /5

40 3. Determine such that P[X < ] = 0.5 / 5 = ln 0.5 /5 1 e = 0.5 = Determine such that P[X > ] = 0.75 /5 1 1 e = 0.75 /5 [ ] P[X ] = 1 P X = 0.75 e = 0.75 / 5 = ln 0.75 = 1.44
