Synthetic Unit Hydrograph

A Synthetic Unit Hydrograph is a conceptual hydrograph derived from empirical or theoretical relationships rather than observed data, representing the direct runoff response of a drainage basin to a unit depth of excess rainfall uniformly distributed over a specified duration, with its shape and timing parameters estimated based on basin characteristics such as area, slope, and time of concentration.
