MGB hydrological model for Paraná Basin

This dataset contains model code, input and output data for the MGB hydrological model applied to the Upper Paraná Basin.

Output files (QTUDO_XXX.QBI) are binary ones (single format) containing daily discharges for all model unit-catchments for each simulation scenario.

Simulation scenarios are a combination of storage representation and operation rule types.

Storage representation types:

L=Lumped reservoir

E=Equally distributed reservoir

V=Variably distributed reservoir

Operation rules:

T=Three points rule

Tg=rule T with global-based configuration

R=regression-based rule

Rg=rule R with global-based configuration

S=inflow-based rule (based on Shin et al. 2019 WRR)

Sg=rule S with global-based configuration

Additionally, simulation scenarios with pristine conditions (i.e., without reservoirs) and without floodplains are also provided.
