Integrated Landscape Hydrology Model
Entry ID: ILHM
[ Update this Record ]


Summary
Abstract: The Integrated Landscape Hydrology Model (ILHM) is a framework of existing and novel codes to simulate the entire hydrologic cycle at large watershed scales. ILHM is capable of modeling all the major surface and near-surface hydrologic processes including evapotranspiration, groundwater recharge, and stream discharge. In the first application of the model, the ILHM-modeled stream flows compared favorably with measured data with a minimum of parameter calibration. It was tested for a small watershed (~130 square kilometers) in Michigan, and is currently being applied to much larger domains. The primary ILHM code is written in the MATLAB computing environment with some routines coded in C and FORTRAN.
