Interfaces facilitate the teaching of hydrological modeling tools, which can otherwise be slowed down by the difficulty for students or water managers to manipulate data or models. To solve these problems, the Hydrology Group at Irstea (Antony) developed an open-source tool using R and proposes a package called airGRteaching (Delaigue et al.,...

Parsimonious and simple lumped rainfall-runoff models are useful tools for research and engineering. From years of experience, the Hydrology Group at Irstea (Antony) developed the GR models suite. Aiming at providing an open source tool, the team started to develop an R package (R Core Team, 2018), named airGR (Coron et al., 2017, 2018), that...

In this paper, we present two R packages, airGR and airGRteaching, which are aimed at hydrological modeling. These two open-source packages allow for undertaking simplified simulations of surface flows on river catchments, based on lumped rainfall-runoff models that require few input data. airGR can be used for engineering, research and...
