In this study a 25-year (1976–2000) series of observed precipitation, temperature, runoff and further water-flows of a lysimeter balance within the pre-alpine research catchment Rietholzbach (Switzerland) is analyzed. The comparison of the precipitation volumes on this lysimeter to precipitation collected by a conventional rain gauge shows that conventional rain gauges provide strongly underestimated values for precipitation, especially in winter. The obtained monthly precipitation correction factors indicate that precipitation losses above 20% for rain and above 50% for snow are realistic. The observed hydrometeorological values allowed for improving the understanding of the model-based simulation of the hydrological processes with distributed hydrological models and for investigating both a conceptual and a physically based runoff-generation approach. The albedo, soil moisture and lysimeter water balance allowed for a simultaneous assessment of the performance of several model components, such as the soil moisture, runoff-generation and evapotranspiration modules and the module for the determination of snow cover accumulation and melt.
