Daily constant discharges are needed estimating daily discharge in the hydrological model. The different number of statistical years, statistical deficiencies, and measurement error leads to the formation of time series with an uncommon time base. Hence the reconstruction of daily discharge data is of paramount importance. In this research, daily discharge was reconstructed in two stages in one of the upstream of Karoun River. In both stages of research, daily discharge data from two upstream stations were used to reconstruct daily discharge of the downstream station using artificial neural networks, neuro-fuzzy and two variables regression methods. In the second stage, the magnitudes of discharge, based on dry, normal and wet years was used to reconstruct the daily discharge. The results showed higher accuracy in the artificial neural network and neuro-fuzzy methods compared to two variable regression methods in the reconstruction of daily discharge. Multi-layer perceptron model has better potential among all different method of artificial neural network and neuro-fuzzy models. Classification of discharge into dry, normal, and wet years decreases error in the reconstruction of daily discharge. Based on the mean relative error (MRE), error in reconstruction of daily discharge is the least in normal, wet, and dry years, respectively

Because of insufficient factors including facilities, budget, human resources as well as time watershed operation is not applicable throughout the basin. As a result, watershed operation should be performed in the sub-basins in which is more affectionate and the risk frequency of some events such as destruction, degradation; physical and financial damage and also flooding are considerably high. In addition, due to hydrometric stations, defects or the lack of stations in some areas, some efforts have been made experts recently to assess and consequently introduce some novel and reliable methods for prioritizing on the basis of current data obtained from sub-basins features of different geographical regions. In current study, the utilization possibilities of neuro-fuzzy technique and SCS in HEC-HMS model that have different potential to examine a wide range of advantageous and disadvantageous in making various decisions were studied. To determine the prediction accuracy of these methods, the rate of flow and sediment output of Taleghan sub-basins were taken over one year. The results of these methods were then compared with the maximum two-year return period flow observations. Our results revealed that in making prioritization, neuro-fuzzy as compared with the SCS method can produce the best prediction as long as the coefficients of errors, efficiency compared to the observational data and predictions are taken into account.
