Most hydrological models are used only for research studies, but in the last two decades many have been introduced into operational practice. This report presents a comprehensive international survey of such operational models, with particular attention being paid to models for real-time forecasting. The conclusions indicate a number of well-developed, operational models, while at the same time noting the serious gaps that require further research and model development.
