The Hysteretic and Gatekeeping Depressions Model (HGDM)
Description
HGDMr is an implementation of the Hysteretic and Gatekeeping Depressions Model (HGDM) which is a one-dimensional model of the effects of varying connected/contributing fractions of Canadian Prairie basins.
Using specified fluxes (rainfall, snowmelt, upland runoff and evaporation), HGDM computes a) the time-varying connected/contributing fraction of a basin having depressional storage and b) the depth of discharge in each time interval.
Note that this model does not route the flows through the basin. This would require the use of another R package, such as RHMS, which has the function 'reachRouting'.
