The Hydrology Laboratory (HL) of the National Weather Service (NWS) proposes the Distributed Model Intercomparison Project (DMIP).  The intent of DMIP is to invite the academic community and other researchers to help guide the NWS's distributed modeling research by participating in a comparison of distributed models applied to test data sets.  HL will provide data sets for several basins.  Participants will download the data sets and run their models in continuous simulation mode.  Model simulations will be compared to observed streamflow data as well as simulations generated from a lumped application of the Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting (SAC-SMA) model.  Participants will be invited to meet in an HL-sponsored workshop to discuss results and future directions.  Results of DMIP will be used to guide future HL's distributed modeling research and applications.
