Loague notes that hundreds, if not thousands, of hydrologic-response models have been developed, but that not all were created equal. This volume reprints 30 papers that exemplify the best in rainfall-runoff modelling. It charts developments from Mulvany's (1851) rational method for estimating peak flow, probably the first rainfall-runoff model, up to 1989. Benchmark papers on other empirical approaches, such as Sherman (1932) and Mockus (1949), are reprinted, as are Richards (1931) and Smith & Parlange (1978), the innovative contributions of Alan Freeze, and later Keith Beven, and the seminal papers of Moore & Clarke (1981) and Abbott et al. (1986).The International Association of Hydrological Sciences is the world's premier member-based organization promoting the study and practice of Hydrology. Our books are authored, edited and produced at the highest level of quality, with the most current and thorough research. Our publications and our work advance the science and the professional practice of Hydrology in a variety of Science and Engineering fields around the world. The areas that we publish in include:• Ground water• Surface water• Snow and ice hydrology• Drought and desertification• Runoff modelling• Watershed• Remote sensing• Water quality• Water resources and management• Ecohydrology/hydro-ecology• Erosion and sediment• Tracer hydrology
