Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydrological and water resources uncertainty analysis, and specifically to a method for quantifying the uncertainty of runoff change attribution. Background Technology
[0002] In watershed-scale runoff change studies, the Budyko framework is widely used to decompose the relative contributions of climate change and human activities to runoff. In practice, researchers need to choose from different staging methods, potential evapotranspiration calculation methods, surface averaging methods of meteorological elements, and the Budyko equation family. Different combinations of methods often lead to significant differences, resulting in uncertainty in the results. Existing work mostly presents these differences through cross-sectional comparisons or empirical discussions, lacking a unified, statistically consistent framework to quantify the uncertainty in attribution results caused by different calculation schemes. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a method for quantifying the uncertainty of runoff change attribution that can address the aforementioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problems mentioned above and to propose a method for quantifying the uncertainty of runoff change attribution, comprising the following steps: S1.

Based on the elasticity coefficient and the two-period statistics, obtain the climate term caused by climate change such as precipitation and potential evapotranspiration, and the residual term caused by the underlying surface (human activities), and calculate the climate contribution rate. S4. A Bayesian hierarchical model with Beta regression is constructed in response to the climate contribution rate of each scheme. Random effects of staging method (SEG), potential evapotranspiration calculation (PET), meteorological element surface average interpolation method (MET), and Budyko equation form (EQ) are introduced at the logit scale, and the optimal second-order interaction (staging method SEG × Budyko equation form EQ, potential evapotranspiration calculation PET × surface average meteorological parameter calculation method MET) is performed. After-a priori inference is performed using Markov chain Monte Carlo and other methods, and the uncertainty contribution of the above factors to the attribution results is quantified.

Construct a cross-stochastic effects structure, introduce the stochastic intercepts and physically meaningful second-order interaction terms (SEG×EQ, PET×MET) of each scheme, and establish the model mean expression at the logit scale. S43. Based on measured watershed data, literature experience, and the physical meaning of the Budyko framework, a relaxed normal prior is set for the model intercept (the value corresponding to the climate contribution rate of the baseline scheme), a half-t distribution weak information prior is set for the variance of the random effects of each scheme, and a gamma prior is set for the precision parameter of the Beta distribution, thus balancing data-driven and prior constraints.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) Uncertainty quantification of all factors. The full factor combination of stage (SEG), potential evapotranspiration (PET), surface average (MET) and Budyko equation (EQ) is uniformly incorporated into the hierarchical Bayesian (Beta-logit) framework to perform posterior estimation of main effects and key second-order interactions and to give the variance contribution share and interval estimate of each source. Compared with existing methods that rely only on a single scheme or empirical comparison, this invention achieves explicit decomposition and traceable quantification of methodological uncertainty, which significantly improves the robustness and comparability of attribution conclusions.
[0023] (2) Objective selection and measurable model selection mechanism. The effects and importance of each candidate method (SEG / PET / MET / EQ) are learned simultaneously within a unified statistical layer to form a ranking of method importance, avoiding manual "method selection" and selective reporting bias; based on this, the scheme library can be automatically reduced and standardized to maintain consistent results under different watershed / time period / data quality conditions, strong reproducibility, and low implementation cost, demonstrating the engineering transferability advantages over existing technologies.

The method for quantifying the uncertainty of runoff change attribution according to claim 9, characterized in that: Step S4 is as follows: For detailed calculation, for each combination of schemes Below Record The climate contribution rate obtained in step S103 is taken as the response: ; Keep only " and Same number and The combination of ""; The total number of levels for the four factors; The observation layer uses Beta's "mean-precision" parameterization, with the mean linked to the linear predictor via logit. ; In the formula This is the conditional mean of the combination. For accuracy parameters, It is a linear predictor on the logit scale; It consists of the overall intercept, the random intercepts of the four main effects, and two second-order interactions: ; in, For the overall intercept, The main effect random intercepts of the four types of factors are shown. , For the two interactive random intercepts; To avoid confusion with the intercept, the main effects are zero-sum / centered within the group, and the interactions are centered in both the row and column directions: ; ; When it is necessary to restore the results to the original scale, use ; The intercept is taken from a loose normal prior; the random effects are taken from a hierarchical normal prior with a half-t prior given to their standard deviation; and the observation level precision is taken from a gamma prior. ; ; ; in For each category of a priori criteria; Inference and uncertainty quantification were completed, MCMC sampling was performed using NUTS, and convergence testing was completed. The quantification of "sources of uncertainty" is based on the calculation of the variance contribution ratio of random effects: Let... Let be the standard deviation of the category, then: ; right By summing the median and 95% confidence interval across all posterior samples, we obtain the proportions of the variability in the contribution rates of phased SEG, potential evapotranspiration (PET), MET, EQ, and their interactions to climate change; simultaneously, we can... By extrapolating back to the original scale for each random effect, we provide estimates and intervals of the climate contribution rates at the overall and individual scenario levels, and output the results for each combination. The posterior prediction results.
