Abstract
A spatially distributed energy balance snowmelt model has been constructed and applied to an 800 km2 drainage basin in the Juntanghu River, to simulate the melt of the snowpack of 2010 coupled with the WRF model with T639L60 forecast data. The simulation was run at a 1h time step and a spatial resolution of 30m. With meteorological fields as input, the simulated fields of snow water equivalent, and the streamflow reproduce observations well. This project is a demonstration of spatially distributed energy balance snowmelt modeling in a mesoscale mountainous catchment using data from WRF.
