Technical Note:
Using HSPEXP with BASINS/NPSM
July 23, 1999
Overview of HSPEXP: Function, Purpose and Limitations
The Expert System for the Calibration of the Hydrological Simulation Program - Fortran
(HSPEXP) was developed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to assist watershed
modelers with hydrology calibration. The program offers advice to the modeler, suggesting
parameter changes that might result in better representation of a river basin. HSPEXP also provides
explanations supporting the recommended parameter changes. The less experienced modeler
benefits from the expert advice through increased understanding of the hydrologic processes as
modeled by HSPF.
The purpose of this document is to assist BASINS/NPSM users who would like to benefit from the
calibration advice offered by HSPEXP. BASINS/NPSM users can follow this step-by-step guide to
build HSPEXP input from NPSM, run HSPEXP for calibration, and then insert the HSPEXP
calibrated parameters back into NPSM.
The expert calibration advice in HSPEXP was provided by two experts in hydrologic modeling,
Alan M. Lumb of the USGS and Norman H. Crawford of Hydrocomp, Inc., and compiled by a
knowledge engineer, Richard B. McCammon of the USGS. HSPEXP is designed to use data and
input files that are based on the HSPF-defmed "English" unit system. Note that all examples
discussed below, and in the HSPEXP documentation, assume use of English units, consistent with
those used by NPSM.
Although HSPEXP is an extremely powerful and useful companion to HSPF and BASINS/NPSM,
it does have limitations of which users need to be cognizant. These limitation include:
a. no advice is available for snow or water quality calibration
b. no guidance is provided on 'how much' to change a parameter value
c. parameter guidance and advice is not specific to land segments or land use categories
d. HSPEXP does not have any 'spatial memory', so that separate applications to two
neighboring watersheds can result in very different parameter values unless the user
imposes consistency based on real-world knowledge of the watersheds.
e. seasons are fixed - summer is June through August, winter is December through
February. This directly affects any seasonal statistics calculated by HSPEXP; users
should review the manual (see page 3) for definitions of the error statistics. Seasonal
errors tend to be the most difficult to reduce and thus may require larger tolerances.

-------
All users need to keep these limitations in mind in order to derive the most benefit from the
capabilities available in HSPEXP. In reality it is more a 'decision-support' system than it is an
'expert' system.
Step 1: Obtain HSPEXP
The primary means of obtaining HSPEXP is from the USGS web site, at
http://water.usgs.gov/software/hspexp.html. The most recent release of HSPEXP, version 2.3, is
dated March 1996. Note that the current HSPEXP release includes HSPF version 11 (i.e. the
version called by NPSM); features of HSPF version 12 and beyond will not be supported in
HSPEXP until a subsequent release of HSPEXP.
The users manual for HSPEXP is also available for download from the web site specified above.
The manual is cited as follows:
Lumb, A.M., McCammon, R.B., and Kittle, J.L., Jr., 1994, Users manual for an expert system
(HSPEXP) for calibration of the Hydrologic Simulation Program—Fortran: U.S. Geological Survey
Water-Resources Investigations Report 94-4168, 102 p.
Step 2: Extract UCI file from BASINS
Both BASINS 2.0/NPSM and HSPEXP 2.3 are built around HSPF v. 11, and both provide an
interface for specifying HSPF inputs. At run-time HSPF expects to find these inputs in a flat ASCII
file known as the User-Control-Input (UCI) file. For the BASINS/NPSM user, the UCI file is
created by NPSM but does not contain all of the information HSPEXP expects to find. Thus the
user must enhance the NPSM UCI file for use with HSPEXP.
When run, NPSM creates the UCI file, and stores it in the BASINS\MODELOUT\
folder, with the name .uci. Run the NPSM for your project, and locate the UCI file
within the directory structure of the computer. Since modifications will be necessary, it is
suggested that you copy this file to a new file name, such as .uci. This new UCI file
will be modified in step 6.
Step 3: Set up WDM File for HSPEXP
BASINS/NPSM uses a binary direct-access file known as the Watershed Data Management (WDM)
file for meteorologic data input to HSPF. HSPEXP will also access a WDM file for writing output
time series data. The WDM file must be modified so that it is prepared to accept this output data.
The WDM file used in NPSM resides in the BASINS/Data/met_data folder. Since modifications
Page 2 of 14
-------
will be necessary, it is suggested that you copy this file to a new file name, such as
.wdm. Be sure that the user has write access to this WDM file. The WDM file will be
modified in steps 4 and 5.
Step 4: Add Observed Flow Data to WDM File
The HSPEXP user must select the number of sites at which to calibrate HSPF. At least one site is
required for using HSPEXP, and often it is advisable to calibrate at multiple sites where observed
data are available. While HSPEXP allows the user to calibrate at multiple points in the same
watershed, it may be preferable to calibrate only against pour points of subwatersheds defined in the
BASINS GIS. Using BASINS-defined subwatershed pour/calibration points permits the user to
later present comparison plots (modeled vs. monitored) in the NPSM Postprocessor. Observed flow
data must be imported wherever a HSPEXP calibration site is desired.
The observed flow data can be downloaded from the USGS as described in the BASINS User's
Manual Version 2.0 Section 10.14, and imported to the WDM file using the WDM file maintenance
tool, WDMUtil (available from the BASINS Web site). Record the WDM data set numbers into
which the data have been imported as well as the drainage areas for each calibration site for use in
step 6. Note that the period of record for the observed flow data must include the simulation period
if HSPEXP is to use these data for calibration.
Step 5: Add data sets to WDM file for output
HSPEXP expects output data sets to exist in the user's WDM file. For each calibration site eight
output data sets must be created, representing simulated total runoff, simulated surface runoff,
simulated interflow, simulated base flow, potential evapotranspiration, actual evapotranspiration,
upper zone storage, and lower zone storage.
Create the necessary data sets by creating and importing 'dummy' data sets from flat files using
WDMUtil. A simple text file with two lines can be created using a text editor. The first line should
include the start date of the calibration period and a value, such as '01/01/1990 1', and the second
line should include the end date of the calibration period and a value, such as '12/31/1994 1'.
With the WDM file open in WDMUtil, the user could open this text file and import the data sets,
specifying a time step of T, time units of'day', '0' header lines, and the starting and ending dates of
the run. The proper format would have to be entered, such as 'm2,lx,d2,lx,y4,v5' for this example.
For the 'constituent' field enter the four-character time series type from the chart below. The 'Write
to WDM' option should then be used to write these time series data sets to the WDM file. The user
would have to repeat this process for each of the eight time series data sets for each calibration site,
selecting and recording the data set numbers for step 6.

Another alternative is to create the eight output data sets with the program ANNIE, as described in
the HSPEXP documentation. (The ANNIE software can be obtained from the same USGS Web site
as HSPEXP). The time step should be set to T, with the time units set to 'day'. The time series
type (TSTYPE attribute) should be entered according to the chart above.
Step 6: Modify the UCI file
Several changes will have to be made to the UCI file extracted from BASINS/NPSM in Step 2.
Each block of the UCI file requiring modification will be discussed sequentially, with 'before' and
'after' examples. These modifications should be made using a text editor and the file saved as a text
file (without any hidden control characters).
FILES Block:
The WDM line of the FILES block will have to be modified to reflect the path and name of the new
WDM file.

OPN SEQUENCE Block:
A COPY operation needs to be added to the OPN SEQUENCE block for each calibration site. Note
that some COPY operations likely exist before modification. Assign new numbers to the new
COPY operations (i.e. use different numbers than the existing COPY operations). Be sure to add
the new COPY operations after all of the PERLND, IMPLND, and RCHRES operations.

The purpose of this additional line or block is to create an internal scratch pad for each calibration
point (e.g. copy volumes 100 and 101) that will contain seven mean-valued data sets each (i.e.
SURO, IFWO, AGWO, PET, TAET, UZS, and LZS).

SCHEMATIC Block:
The appropriate time series linkages need to be added. Add the SCHEMATIC Block with records
for each land surface contributing to each calibration site (see also section 4.6.4 on p. 654 in the
HSPF v.l 1 manual). An example using four PERLND segments and three IMPLND segments
follows. The area factors will need to be modified as described below.

The area factors in the examples must be modified for the basin being modeled. Each area factor
should represent the number of acres of each land use upstream of each calibration site. These area
factors can be inferred from the contents of the NETWORK Block through the area factors of
PERLND/IMPLND to RCHRES records upstream of the calibration site. These area factors
multiplied by twelve (a conversion factor for feet to inches) indicate the areas contributing to each
calibration site in acres.
Note: The two calibration points, in the example above, are located within the same watershed.
Page 8 of 14
-------
Alternatively, separate calibration/pour points for separate subwatersheds could be delineated in
BASINS/NPSM. The OPN SEQUENCE block would then have additional land segments and
reaches associated with the second watershed. Additionally, the SCHEMATIC block would look
like the second block above but with the land segments and land segment areas, associated with the
second watershed, assigned to COPY 101.
MASS-LINK Block:
The following MASS-LINK tables must be added to the UCI file. It is assumed that no MASS-
LINK Block already exists, hence the following records can be added exactly as indicated below for
any number of calibration sites (see also section 4.6.4 on p. 654 in HSPF v. 11 manual):

EXT TARGETS Block:
Eight EXT TARGETS records must be added for each calibration site. The records may be copied
from the examples below and modified accordingly (see section 4.6.5 on p. 661 of HSPF v.ll
manual for additional details). In the first of the eight records the RCHRES Volume number must
be modified to reflect the RCHRES number at the calibration site. The multiplication factor (Mult
factor) is used to convert acre-feet to watershed-inches, and thus must be modified to represent 12
(the conversion factor from feet to inches) divided by the watershed area upstream of the site in
acres. The WDM Volume number must be modified to correspond to the data set number of the
WDM data set for simulated total runoff recorded in step 5.
In the second through eighth records, the COPY volume number must be set as specified elsewhere
in the UCI file (see Step 6). The multiplication factor is used to convert acre-inches to watershed-
inches and must be modified to represent 1 divided by the watershed area upstream of the site in
acres. The WDM Volume number must be modified to correspond to the data set number of the
WDM data set for that constituent as recorded in step 5.

Step 7: Create the HSPEXP 'Basin Specifications File'
One additional file, known as the 'Basin Specifications File', is required so HSPEXP can track the
data related to the particular calibration project. This file includes data such as the number of
calibration sites, the HSPEXP data set numbers, selected storm periods, drainage areas for each
calibration site, and values for error terms and criteria.
The 'Basin Specifications File' can be created interactively through HSPEXP. The full details are
described in the HSPEXP user's manual (p. 28-34); however, the following tips and clarifications
are offered for the user:
General Parameters: Use the starting and ending dates from the GLOBAL Block of the UCI file.
The WDM file name prefix was specified in the FILES Block; use the base file name without the
'WDM' extension. The number of storms to use in calibration must be specified (up to 36 storms are
allowed); generally speaking, more storms enable more precise calibrations.
Location Information: For each calibration site, record the drainage area and data set numbers. The
drainage areas were recorded in step 4. The data set number of the observed streamflow was
recorded in step 4, while the data set numbers of the eight EXT TARGETS data sets were recorded
in step 5. The data set number for the observed precipitation data set can be inferred from the EXT
SOURCES block by looking at the WDM volume number on the record with a member name
'PREC' contributing to the RCHRES where the calibration site is located.
Storm Dates: Examine the precipitation data set(s) specified above in the 'Location Information' in
conjunction with the observed flow. Plots of daily precipitation and daily mean flow at each
calibration site are recommended as a basis for selecting storms. Choose as many storms as possible
Page 11 of 14
-------
distributed over the entire period of the simulation, with roughly equal numbers of storms for each
season. A sufficient number of storm dates are needed for HSPEXP to calculate storm statistics that
adequately characterize the simulation. The storm period should usually start on the first day of
significant precipitation (except during snowmelt events in winter) and extend through the time
when the flow returns almost to pre-storm levels. Depending on site and seasonal conditions this
period could extend from 3 to 5 days, or up to 7 to 10 days. Storms should include both high and
moderate to low peaks so that the full range of storm types are represented. Users should leave out
any storms that demonstrate an obvious mismatch between precipitation and runoff.
Ancillary Information: Answer the questions if possible. Take the default values where uncertain.
After creating the 'basin specifications file', use the 'Basin'-'Put' option within HSPEXP to write the
file to disk. A temporary name for the 'basin specifications file' should be given, not the base
name of the UCI file created above. HSPEXP will create an empty UCI file with the same
base name as the 'basin specifications file'; if the base name is the same as the base of the UCI
file name the UCI file modified in the steps above will be overwritten. Exit HSPEXP, and, from
the operating system, rename the 'basin specifications file' (the base name specified above with an
'.exs' extension) with the base name of the UCI file modified above. At this point the 'basin
specifications file and the UCI file should have the same base name and reside in the same folder.
Step 8: Create/Edit TERM.DAT File in HSPEXP
When generating the UCI file, NPSM uses file unit numbers starting with 30 (for model output and
point source loading input files [MUT format]). HSPEXP coincidentally uses default file unit
numbers in the range 30 to 33. The conflicting use of the same file unit numbers will cause
HSPEXP to crash if not changed. If you already have a TERM.DAT file in the same directory from
where HSPEXP is run, edit it to include the line "FILUNI 60." Otherwise, create a text file with the
line "FILUNI 60" and save it with the name "TERM.DAT" in the same directory as HSPEXP.BAT.
More information about the TERM.DAT file can be found in the HSPEXP manual (p. 93).
Step 9: Run HSPEXP
HSPEXP takes the modeler through a series of model simulation cycles. Each cycle may consist of
simulating with HSPF, computing error statistics, producing plots and output tables comparing
observed and simulated output, providing the user with expert advice on which parameters should be
changed to improve the calibration, and then allowing the user to edit the input file in response to
the expert advice.
Most of the details of this step are described in HSPEXP users manual. When entering HSPEXP
choose the 'Basin'-'Get' menu items, and specify the base name of the UCI and 'Basin Specifications
File'. During the calibration procedure some users prefer to modify the parameters in the UCI file
with a text editor outside of HSPEXP. To do so, exit HSPEXP prior to making the modifications.

-------
Noted Label Errors in HSPEXP Summary Statistics:
A few errors are known to exist in the labels for HSPEXP summary statistics. 'Total Annual
Runoff should actually read 'Total Runoff for the Simulation Period', and 'Error in Storm
Volumes' should read 'Error in Storm Peaks'.
Step 10: Return the UCI file to BASINS
Since NPSM does not "read" HSPF UCI files, any changes made during calibration with HSPEXP
in Step 9 must be re-entered using the NPSM interface. The following table shows the parameters
referenced in HSPEXP advice and their corresponding block and/or table in HSPF. Compare each
parameter from the final HSPEXP UCI file with the same parameter in the original NPSM project.
All parameters that have been changed, including any not listed below, must be updated in NPSM.
