| Abstract | Relationship was investigated between optimized coefficients of the tank model and basin characteristics . As result, many coefficients were correlated to basin area such as topography and nearby location. Rainfall and runoff data are often inadequate. This insufficiency of data prompted a number of researchers to conduct studies on the development of hydrologic models. Rainfall and runoff records are used to calibrate and verify the models. The tank model procedure was applied to calibrate and verify the runoff. There is an estimation of model parameter. It is considered the outlet coefficients of the tank model for tropical river basins, which is constructed to describe the rainfall-runoff. First study area, Nam Ngum river basin is selected at Ban NaLuang gauging station where is observed in north Lao PDR (Laos). Second studies, Nam Songkhram river basin is selected Ban Tha Kok Deang is observed a gauging station where is in northeast portion of the Khorat plateau. Last study, Utaphao river basin is selected Code of NoX-90 where is in southern Thailand. The calibration procedure of the tank model works efficiently and can be used in general practice such as tropical regions even Lower Mekong Basin. In the pass had eight basins were selected in the Lower Mekong and Chao Phraya river basins such as Sirikit Dam, LamdomYai, Srinagarin, Nam Chi basin at Ban Chot, Hoai Rai basin at Ban Non Kiang, Nam Mae Chan at Ban Yano Mai, and Nam Mun, in Thailand and Thac Buoi and Chu Basins , in Vietnam. The total results are twelve thus we can estimate water balance in the tropical river basins |
