abstract = "The river basins and water management systems are
characterised by a high degree of complexity. In order
to find the best operation rules of the reservoirs
during floods all other time consuming data processing
(like flood wave propagation) should be simplified at
maximum. For this purpose, the Genetic Programming (GP)
approach was used. The GP transfer functions derived
for flood propagation provide an excellent agreement
with the floods propagation based on Saint Venant
equations, but without time and other resources
consuming. The synthetic floods of the ungauged
tributaries keeping the same probability of exceedance
along the main river were derived using regionalization
studies. The proposed approach was tested for Sitna and
Miletin river, two main tributaries of Jijia river.",
