Input Runoff Data for RAPID Model Pre-Processor (RRR) from GLDAS-v.2.1

<p>This database can be used as the input runoff files in the RAPID model [<em>David et al.,</em> 2011] pre-processor (RRR). The runoff files were acquired/derived from the GLDAS-v.2.1 [<em>Rodell et al.,</em> 2004] LSM outputs, available at;</p> <p><a href="http://hydro1.gesdisc.eosdis.nasa.gov/daac-bin/OTF/HTTP_services.cgi">http://hydro1.gesdisc.eosdis.nasa.gov/daac-bin/OTF/HTTP_services.cgi</a></p> <p>The GLDAS-v.2.1 outputs (from NOAH Land Surface Models) are available in 1&ordm;, 0.25&ordm; with 3-hour temporal resolution. The database contains the following files;</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; GLDAS.2.1_NOAH<em><strong>res</strong></em>_3H_<em><strong>yyyy</strong></em>.tar.gz&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (Note: <em><strong>res</strong></em> = 10 or 025; <em><strong>yyyy</strong></em> = 2000 to 2009)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Note: These runoff data were used by <em>Sikder et al.</em> [2019] to assess the performance of available global LSM runoffs in South and Southeast Asian river basins.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Other necessary links associated with this database:</p> <p>RAPID model: <a href="https://github.com/c-h-david/rapid">https://github.com/c-h-david/rapid</a></p> <p>RAPID model pre-processor (rrr): <a href="https://github.com/c-h-david/rrr">https://github.com/c-h-david/rrr</a></p> <p>GLDAS outputs: <a href="https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov/datasets?keywords=GLDAS">https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov/datasets?keywords=GLDAS</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>References:</p> <p>David, C.
