EDITORIAL FUTURE OF DISTRIBUTED MODELLING ## SPECIAL ISSUE OF HYDROLOGICAL PROCESSES This special issue of hydrological processes is the result of a meeting on the future of distributed models held at Lancaster University under the auspices of the British Hydrological Society. I was asked to orga
## Abstract Various hydrological models exist that describe the phases in the hydrologic cycle either in an empirical, semiโmechanistic or fully mechanistic way. The way and level of detail for the different processes of the hydrologic cycle that needs to be described depends on the objective, the
The accompanying special issue is a distillation of papers from that meeting. These papers represent a cross section of work from both countries across the physical-biogeochemical interface. It is just over 30 years since Hewlett and Hibbert's seminal work on the variable source area was published.
## Abstract An evaluation is made of the suitability of programming languages for hydrological modellers to create distributed, processโbased hydrological models. Both system programming languages and highโlevel environmental modelling languages are evaluated based on a list of requirements for the
## Abstract Some relatively straightforward modifications to the Distributed HydrologyโSoilโVegetation Model (DHSVM) are described that allow it to represent urban hydrological processes. In the modified model, precipitation that falls on impervious surfaces becomes surface runoff, and a spatially
