Type of model: Conceptual Physical
What data are needed to run the model?
What parameters need to be defined or estimated? How are they derived?
Representation of hydrologic processes:
a. What is the spatial element over which the input is lumped?
b. What is the rainfall/runoff transformation mechanism?
c. How is runoff routed within each element?
d. How is runoff routed to the basin outlet?
e. How is 'sub-grid' variability of processes accounted for?
What techniques are used to decide the resolution of the spatial element?
What is the finest/coarsest level of resolution?
How is the surface/topography represented? e.g., TIN, grid, etc.
How is the model calibrated?
What is your experience with the model?
Are there publications desribing the model?
