Key Points

The aim is to reproduce and validate a hydrological model for assessing combined sewer overflows based on various input parameters.
Implemented a hydrological combined sewer overflow model in R based on various datasets.
Applied the model to the Upper Danube Basin and validation regions, addressing inconsistencies within the model.
Conducted sensitivity analysis to evaluate the influence of model parameters and input data.
Model predicts annual combined sewer overflow volumes in the range of 300 to 400 million m3 for the Upper Danube Basin from 2021 to 2024.
Observed annual overflow averages of 62 million m3 (2010-2016) and 93 million m3 (2021-2024) for Austria.
The model displayed ±20% error for overflow volumes in 5 of 8 validation regions, indicating variable model performance.

Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.

Study models annual combined sewer overflow volume in the Upper Danube Basin, indicating the need for local parameter adjustments.
