Abstract / Summary:

This is the first of a series of reports expected from CRC for Catchment Hydrology Program 5, Climate Variability. This program aims to reduce management uncertainty by developing space-time models for Australia, improving the representativeness of surface hydrology in numerical weather prediction models, developing methods to forecast rainfall and streamfl ow several hours to several months ahead, and establishing a robust set of stochastic models for the generation of climate and streamfl ow.

This report deals with the latter aspect, and is part of CRCCH Project 5.2 (National Data Bank of Stochastic Climate and Streamfl ow Models). The recommendations outlined in the report will form the basis of the research program to be conducted in this project.
