v1.1

This release introduces significant updates to enhance functionality and usability.

Updates:

1. Bathymetry Parameter:

• Added bathymetry parameters in the reservoir parameter file.
• Improved representation of reservoir bathymetry using detailed hypsometric curves that relate area, storage, and elevation.

2. Step-By-Step Option:

• Introduced the ability to run the model in step-by-step mode, which enables coupling VIC-Res with external models (e.g., sediment transport or power system models). The model can run one step at a time, exchange outputs (e.g., hydropower or streamflow) with external models, and then progress to the next time step while maintaining state information.

v1.0

This is the first version released on GitHub, developed based on the foundational work in the following papers by Dang et al. (2020):

1. Dang, T.D., Chowdhury, A.F.M.K., Galelli, S. (2020): On the representation of water reservoir storage and operations in large-scale hydrological models: implications on model parameterization and climate change impact assessments. Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 24, 397–416.
2. Dang, T.D., Vu, T.D., Chowdhury, K., Galelli, S. (2020): A software package for the representation and optimization of water reservoir operations in the VIC hydrologic model. Environmental Modelling & Software, 126, 104673.
