Abstract
Taking the nonlinear nature of runoff system into account, and combining auto-regression method and multi-regression method, a Nonlinear Mixed Regression Model (NMR) was established to analyze the impact of temperature and precipitation changes on annual river runoff process. The model was calibrated and verified by using BP neural network with observed meteorological and runoff data from Daiying Hydrological Station in the Chaohe River of Hebei Province in 1956–2000. Compared with auto-regression model, linear multi-regression model and linear mixed regression model, NMR can improve forecasting precision remarkably. Therefore, the simulation of climate change scenarios was carried out by NMR. The results show that the nonlinear mixed regression model can simulate annual river runoff well.
