Many different runoff prediction methods are being used among which SCS model has been applied throughout the globe. It is therefore very important to evaluate the circumstances and input specifications under which such models could be applied. The present study was conducted to investigate the role of rainfall main characteristics on accuracy of SCS model in runoff prediction for Kasilian and Darjazin watersheds. For this purpose, the simultaneous rainfall-runoff data were selected and the storm runoff was estimated using determining rainfall characteristic, providing Curve Number map and calibrating the model. In order to determine the effects of rainfall characteristics on model output, the standardized values of regression coefficient (β) of the best fitted multiple regression, developed between rainfall circumstances and maximum storage index coefficient, were determined. The results of the study showed the depth, maximum rainfall in concentration time, maximum 30 minutes intensity, 2nd quartile and 1st quartile have the highest rate of effectiveness on model output respectively.
