Desarrollo de un modelo hidrológico continuo semidistribuido de paso diario: Interpolación espacial e identificación de días húmedos y secos

Abstract

Abstract: One of the most important resources for life is the water, for that reason, it must be managed correctly, since poor management has caused severe problems worldwide, for this purpose, it is necessary to apply hydrological models that simulate the basins behavior allowing the analysis and prevention of essential water events. The main purpose of this research is to carry out the study and development of tools that allow the creation of a semi-distributed continuous hydrological model of daily flow, for which a complement compatible with Qgis was performed, generating an interpolation of precipitation and evapotranspiration data using the inverse method of distance, this plugin was created in a programming language known as python and was processed in open source environments such as Spyder and jupyter notebook. This work was validated with information collected from different nearby meteorological stations and was applied in micro-basins resulting from the subdivision of the upper basin of the Catamayo River in the 2008-2011 period.
