Short summary
The distributed hydrological model has not yet been applied in large watershed flood forecasting due to some limitations. By proposing a method for estimating channel cross section size with remote sensing data, employing the PSO algorithm optimize model parameters and running the model on high-performance supercomputer with parallel computation technique, this article successfully applied the Liuxihe model in a larger watershed flood forecasting in southern China at high resolution.
