Abstract: The problem of optimal reservoir operations consists of obtaining optimal releases, reservoir storages, and downstream reach routed flows based on forecasted inflows and precipitation. Five goal‐programming schemes that ...

Abstract: The Hurst exponent of hydrologic time series is investigated after accounting for the short-term memory. Different versions of the rescaled range statistic are used in this study to investigate the rescaled range characteristics ...

Abstract: The Hurst exponent can be estimated by different methods. Two estimation methods are considered in this study. In the first estimate, the rescaled range of a hydrometeorological series is plotted against the lag on a ...
