Hello all,

Through reading the "readme_output.txt" provided by the dataset, I found that I should be able to rebuild the unit hydrographs for all 671 watersheds through parameter Unit_shape and parameter unit_scale. However, I did not found any other detailed description on how to rebuild unit hydrographs exactly (i.e. the equation of generating unit hydrograph).

If any of you could share some knowledge about this with me, it will be greatly appreciated. 

Sincerely,
Lujun

Hi Lujun,

Many apologies for the very late reply on this question.  You can create the hydrograph using the fortran code duamel.f, which should have been in the CAMELS release, so we'll be sure to include it there in the future.  It represents the gamma function with the input shape and scale parameters with the CAMELS dataset.

Cheers,
Andy
