PyTOPKAPI - a Python implementation of the TOPKAPI Hydrological model
=====================================================================

PyTOPKAPI is a BSD licensed Python library implementing the TOPKAPI
Hydrological model (Liu and Todini, 2002). The model is a
physically-based and fully distributed hydrological model, which has
already been successfully applied in several countries around the
world (Liu and Todini, 2002; Bartholomes and Todini, 2005; Liu et al.,
2005; Martina et al., 2006; Vischel et al., 2008, Sinclair and Pegram,
2010).
