Enhancing the prediction accuracy of data-driven models for monthly streamflow in Urmia Lake Basin based upon the autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic time-series model

Hydrological modeling is one of the important subjects in managing water resources and the processes of predicting stochastic behavior. Developing Data-Driven Models (DDMs) to apply to hydrological modeling is a very complex issue because of the stochastic nature of the observed data, like seasonali...
