Salas, Gaurav Savant, Roland Viger, Andy Wood<br>
                    <br>Finally, a paper describing the philosophy behind the Next Generation Water Resources Modeling Framework. We've worked on several models that make up the initial formulations for this Framework, which is slated to makeup the computational ecosystem of the next version of the operational U.S. National Water Model. The idea behind this frameowkork is that it allows a "plug and play" environment for adding new models and testing new formulations, conceptualization and combinations of hydrologic modules.</p>
