In 2012 the simulation period was extended up to March 2011. Subsequently, the model was recalibrated and the ability to simulate distributed runoff and total stream flows were added with the help of 4R code in 2013. The main tasks of the current project will be to further extent simulation period up to the end of March 2023, complete various model refinements and improve model calibration and credibility.
