摘要

NextGen水资源建模框架（NextGen）极大地提高了水文建模工作流程的灵活性和互操作性。然而，由于安装过程复杂，部署下一代模型仍然具有挑战性。为了解决这个问题，我们开发了NextGen In A Box (NGIAB)，这是一个NextGen框架的一体化发行版，使用Docker和Singularity容器简化了跨环境的部署。NGIAB预先配置了国家水模型4.0版本中的大多数组件，该版本将使用NextGen框架。此外，NGIAB利用基于云的持续集成/持续部署管道来自动化发布。通过其易于访问和强大的配套设施，NGIAB促进了社区参与水文建模，并促进了从研究到运营（R2O）的途径。在这项工作中，我们提出了实现这些结果的设计和技术，以及证明NGIAB适用性的研究和性能基准。

NextGen In A Box (NGIAB): Open-Source containerization of the NextGen framework to enable community-driven hydrology modeling

The NextGen Water Resources Modeling Framework (NextGen) greatly increases the flexibility and interoperability of hydrologic modeling workflows. However, deploying NextGen models remains challenging due to a complex installation process. To address this, we developed NextGen In A Box (NGIAB), an all-in-one distribution of the NextGen framework that simplifies deployment across environments using Docker and Singularity containers. NGIAB comes pre-configured with most components expected in version 4.0 of the National Water Model, which will use the NextGen framework. Additionally, NGIAB utilizes a cloud-based continuous integration/continuous deployment pipeline to automate releases. Through its ease of access and robust suite of included utilities, NGIAB promotes community engagement in hydrologic modeling and facilitates research-to-operation (R2O) pathways. In this work, we present the designs and technologies that enable these outcomes, along with studies and performance benchmarks that demonstrate NGIAB's applicability.

期刊介绍： Environmental Modelling & Software publishes contributions, in the form of research articles, reviews and short communications, on recent advances in environmental modelling and/or software. The aim is to improve our capacity to represent, understand, predict or manage the behaviour of environmental systems at all practical scales, and to communicate those improvements to a wide scientific and professional audience.
