RunModel: Run with the provided hydrological model function

Description

Function which performs a single model run with the provided function over the selected period.

Usage

RunModel(InputsModel, RunOptions, Param, FUN_MOD, ...)

Value

[list] see RunModel_GR4J or RunModel_CemaNeigeGR4J for details.

If InputsModel parameter has been created for using a semi-distributed (SD) lag model (See CreateInputsModel), the list value contains an extra item named QsimDown which is a numeric series of simulated discharge [mm/time step] related to the run-off contribution of the downstream sub-catchment.

Arguments

InputsModel

[object of class InputsModel] see CreateInputsModel for details

RunOptions

[object of class RunOptions] see CreateRunOptions for details

Param

[numeric] vector of model parameters (See details for SD lag model)

FUN_MOD

[function] hydrological model function (e.g. RunModel_GR4J, RunModel_CemaNeigeGR4J)

...

(optional) arguments to pass to FUN_MOD

Author

Laurent Coron, Olivier Delaigue

Details

If InputsModel parameter has been created for using a semi-distributed (SD) lag model (See CreateInputsModel), the first item of Param parameter should contain a constant lag parameter expressed as a velocity in m/s, parameters for the hydrological model are then shift one position to the right.
