Paper Summary

The article estimates annual runoff and peak flow at Nazanin catchment in Erbil, Kurdistan Region using different methods. They used SCS method, basin relation, HEC-HMS, and HEC-1 models to estimate runoff. The results show that HEC-HMS and HEC-1 models can be used for generating flood hydrographs in ungauged watersheds.
