•A coupled conceptual hydrological model (K-XAJ) for simulating the rainfall-runoff processes in karst-dominated areas.•The proposed K-XAJ model satisfactorily simulated the rainfall-runoff processes.•The peak flow predicted by the K-XAJ model was larger than that by the Xinanjiang (XAJ) model.•The...
