# Hydrologic Modeling Engine Skill

## Purpose

The Hydrologic Modeling Engine Skill performs hydrologic analysis including rainfall-runoff modeling, flood frequency analysis, and watershed characterization using established methods.

## Capabilities

- Rational method calculations
- SCS/NRCS curve number method
- Unit hydrograph generation
- Reservoir routing
- Time of concentration calculation
- IDF curve analysis
- Flood frequency analysis
- Watershed delineation

## Usage Guidelines

### When to Use
