The flow routing method in the distributed hydrological model was investigated based on the digital elevation model(DEM).The cell-to-cell diffusion wave and Muskingum routing methods were applied to the flood simulation in the Chengcun watershed,located in the southern mountainous area of Anhui Province.The results show that the performances of the two methods are comparable and can produce desirable simulation results.Further comparison and analysis show that the two methods have differences in representation of the spatial distribution of parameters and variables,as well as their computational efficiency.
