A physically based, variable contributing area model of basin hydrology
Mike Kirkby,Keith Beven +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hydrological forecasting model is presented that attempts to combine the important distributed effects of channel network topology and dynamic contributing areas with the advantages of simple lumped parameter basin models.

A physically based, variable contributing area model of basin hydrology / Un modèle à base physique de zone d'appel variable de l'hydrologie du bassin versant
Keith Beven,Mike Kirkby +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hydrological forecasting model is presented that combines the important distributed effects of channel network topology and dynamic contributing areas with the advantages of simple luminescence.
Journal ArticleDOI
The future of distributed models: model calibration and uncertainty prediction.
Keith Beven,Andrew Binley +1 more
TL;DR: The GLUE procedure works with multiple sets of parameter values and allows that, within the limitations of a given model structure and errors in boundary conditions and field observations, different sets of values may be equally likely as simulators of a catchment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macropores and water flow in soils
Keith Beven,Peter F. Germann +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the importance of large continuous openings (macropores) on water flow in soils is discussed and the limitations of models that treat macropores and matrix porosity as separate flow domains are stressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A manifesto for the equifinality thesis
TL;DR: The argument is made that the potential for multiple acceptable models as representations of hydrological and other environmental systems (the equifinality thesis) should be given more serious consideration than hitherto.
