MISDc 2 Layer model, lumped version with snow routine

Matlab implementation of MISDc continuous rainfall-runoff model (2-layer and lumped version including snow routine).

[Brocca_etal_2011] [Massari_et_al_2015] [Ciabatta_et_al_2016] [Camici_et_al_2020].

In Test_data and Results you can find the dataset for testing the code and the corresponding results.

Just run the script "run_MILc_WEB_2L_snow_IE.m" to calibrate and run the model at daily (or hourly) temporal resolution (with also a short Tutorial).

ENJOY!
