Abstract
The Saint-Venant equation of mass balance is used to derive a
stochastics lumped model, describing the dynamics of a
cross-sectional area in a river. The unknown parameters of the
model are estimated by combining the physical equation with a set
of data, a method known as grey box modelling. The data consists
of water level measurements every minute, at two locations in the
river, during a period of nine days. The data was sub sampled to
the frequency of 15 minutes. A maximum likelihood method is used
to estimate the parameters in the model.
