Towards a Comprehensive Assessment of Statistical versus Soft Computing Models in Hydrology: Application to Monthly Pan Evaporation Prediction
This paper evaluates six soft computational models along with three statistical data-driven models for the prediction of pan evaporation (EP). Accordingly, improved kriging—as a novel statistical model—is proposed for accurate predictions of EP for two meteorological stations in Turkey. In the stand...
