Because of the complex transport mechanisms of these flow sources, they are heavily 01010101010101001010101010101 Moisture Model (AMM) dependent on variables that are not normally included in runoff models such as soil moisture 10101010101010010101101001110 Calibrated using conditions and season effects.

The figure below demonstrates the antecedent moisture effects for several storms that occurred 10101010101010010101101001110 Automatically in a five week period in Wayne County, Michigan. The figure shows the I/I flow (black line) after the 10101010101010101010110010101 generates diurnal sewage flow has been filtered from the signal. The period experienced nearly 8-inches of 1010100101010101100 predictions without 0101010100 further data rainfall, which is over twice the average for this area. Note that the four storms circled in red all had 01010101010101001010101010101 manipulation. similar rainfall volumes and patterns, and yet the system response increases for subsequent storms as 10101010101010010101101001110 the antecedent moisture conditions increase.

The basis of this approach is to allow measured data (in this 0101010100101010101010101010101010101 case flow, rainfall and temperature) to guide the modeling process. It does not assume that the model must adhere 010101101001110010101010101010101010 to a specific preconceived notion of the physical system, but rather arrives at a statistically relevant 1001010101010100101010101100 01010101 description based on the data alone. Accordingly, this procedure differs from purely black-box 010101010101010100101010101010101010 modeling since it returns a model that offers insight into the underlying mechanics of the system. 010101010010101101001110010101010101 This is contrary to existing methods, 101010101100101010101010010101010110 which unduly enforce a predetermined 01010101001010101010101 set of physical principles on the data 10010101010101010101010 that may or may not be present in the 01010100101011010011100 actual system. 01010101010101010101100 01010101010010101010110 The application of the i3D AM model 01010101001010101010101 results in a model that accurately 10010101010101010101010 predicts the system response variation 01010100101011010011100 to antecedent moisture conditions. 01010101010101010101100 This is demonstrated in the figure i3D MODel 01010101010010101010110 below that depicts the output from the AM model in red. Note that a single model accurately 010101010010101010101010100101010 predicts both the first storm that occurred on dry AM conditions and the largest response that 01010101010101010101001010110100 occurred on wet AM conditions. The model predicts the variations in capture coefficients for the 11001010101010101010101011001010 entire simulation with no additional input or adjustment by the user. 01010100101010101100 01010101001010101 10101010010101010101010101010101010100 01011010011100101010101010101010101100 Antecedent Moisture Model Results from M2 in Garden City i3D AM MODel fiT 010101010100101010101100 0101010100101 25 0.0 10101010101001010101010101010101010101 i3D Antecedent Moisture Model was 1.16" 10010101101001110010101010101010101010 20 developed by1001010101010100101010101100 010101010 Robert S.
