Sensitivity of runoff to small scale spatial variability of observed rainfall in a distributed model

The spatial variability of rainfall is known to play an important role in the process of surface runoff generation. Yet, the typical assumption of uniform rainfall is still applied in modeling the hydrological behavior of small watersheds. To investigate the validity of this assumption, an experimen...
