Soil Moisture Model (Matlab code)

A continuous soil water balance model for the simulation of soil moisture temporal evolution was made freely available here. The code is written in the MATLAB® programming language and is fully commented. The description of the model structure and of its performance can be found in: Brocca, L., Melone, F., Moramarco, T. (2008). On the estimation of antecedent wetness conditions in rainfall-runoff modelling. Hydrological Processes, 22 (5), 629-642, doi:10.1002/hyp.6629.
