Li Xin · Journal of Glaciology and Geocryology · 2004
Distributed hydrological models are the most active aspect in hydrological modeling field and a efficient approach to solve the problems of hydrology, ecology and environment, which are facing to watershed comprehensive management. Based on the researches about distributed hydrological models in the past two decades, this paper reviews the progress in the following five aspects: 1) the common structure of distributed hydrological models; 2) the relation between distributed hydrological models and GIS and RS; 3) the calibration of distributed hydrological models; 4) the application field of distributed hydrological models; 5) the problems facing the development of distributed hydrological models; 6) the suggestion for the future development of distributed hydrological models.
