HydPy-WQ

All HydPy-WQ models are “function-like” submodels that calculate discharge based on information like the current water level, as needed, for example, for flood routing. We intend to increase the number of available submodels and possible main models step-wise to give users more freedom in choosing the preferred approach.

Available models:

• wq » HydPy-WQ (base model)
• wq_trapeze » HydPy-WQ-Trapeze (multi-trapeze river profile submodel)
• wq_trapeze_strickler » HydPy-WQ-Trapeze-Strickler (multi-trapeze river profile submodel including Strickler-based calculations)
• wq_walrus » HydPy-WQ-WALRUS (WALRUS default function for calculating catchment outflow)
