Documentation of Precipitation–Runoff Modeling System Modules for the Modular Modeling System Modified for the Watershed and River Systems Management Program

Prepared in cooperation with
U.S. BUREAU OF RECLAMATION


By M.C. Mastin and J.J. Vaccaro

ABSTRACT

A decision support system is being developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation as part of a long-term project, the Watershed and River Systems Management Program. The goal of the program is to apply the decision support system to U.S. Bureau of Reclamation projects in the western United States. An important component of the decision support system is the physical hydrology modeling, which consists of watershed models using the U.S. Geological Survey's Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System within the Modular Modeling System.

To construct models and to enhance the tools for the application of the decision support system, selected Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System modules were modified or developed. These modules are documented in this report.
