Water temperature is a controlling indicator of river habitat since many physical, chemical and biological processes in rivers are temperature dependent. Highly precise and reliable predictions of water temperature are important for river ecological management. In this study, a hybrid model named BP_PSO3, based on the BPNN (back propagation neural network) optimized by the PSO (particle swarm optimization) algorithm, is proposed for water temperature prediction using air temperature (Ta), discharge (Q) and day of year (DOY) as input v
