This research was conducted in the Hydrographic Region Titicaca, Peru. The main objective was to develop regional models of average monthly flows and persistence of the main rivers, applied to the problem of estimation of flows in basins without hydrometric registration. The climatic and physiographic characteristics of the basins under study were taken as independent variables and the mean monthly flows and persistence as a dependent variable. The methodology to identify homogeneous hydrological regions was made through the techniques of Ward and L-Moments. The regional equations were determined using potential regression models, the explanatory variables being the basin area and the length of the main river. The Nash-Sutcliffe (NSE) efficiency indicators and the root mean square error (RMSE) were used to assess the statistical significance of the regional models. The proposed regional ...

La investigación se realizó en la cuenca Ramis, ubicado al norte de la región hidrográfica del Titicaca (lado peruano), teniendo como objetivo validar las precipitaciones estimadas por satélite y su aplicación en la modelación hidrológica del rio Ramis. La validación de precipitaciones estimadas por satélite, se realizó mediante una comparación entre datos observados en ambos casos para el periodo enero de 1998 a diciembre 2013, los cuales fueron evaluados mediante los indicadores estadísticos de sesgo porcentual y coeficiente de determinación. Para el caso de la modelación hidrológica, se efectuó mediante el modelo hidrológico GR2M el cual consistió en las etapas de calibración y validación. La significancia estadística de las simulaciones de caudales fue evaluada mediante los indicadores de eficiencia de Nash-Sutcliffe y el sesgo porcentual. Los resultados obtenid...
