syötteenvetomallit
Syötteenvetomallit, Finnish for input water models, are computational tools used to simulate the quantity and quality of water that enters a hydrological system, such as a watershed, reservoir, or irrigation network. These models represent the inflow of precipitation, snowmelt, surface runoff, groundwater seepage, and sometimes anthropogenic discharges. They form the driving boundary conditions for downstream water balance models, enabling planners to predict storage changes, flood occurrences, and water allocation under varying climatic and operational scenarios.
Typical syötteenvetomallit employ a combination of physically based and empirically derived relationships. Physically based models resolve
Key inputs to syötteenvetomallit include high‑resolution meteorological observations (rainfall, temperature, wind, solar radiation), snowpack parameters, land‑cover
Applications of syötteenvetomallit span water resources management, flood forecasting, irrigation planning, and ecological modeling. They support
