HYDROLOGICAL MODELING

LISFLOOD hydrological model (JRC - European Commission))

Lisflood is built up from several modules:

  • A sub model calculating potential and actual evapotranspiration

  • A sub model calculation snow cover and snow melt

  • A 3-layer soil water balance sub model

  • Groundwater and subsurface flow sub model

  • Routing of channel flow sub model

  • Irrigation water requirement sub model

  • Embedded water abstraction and consumption sub models

  • A sub model calculating various indicators and economic impacts

  • Simulates the full water cycle from rainfall to water in rivers, lakes and groundwater
