r.carve: Takes vector stream data, transforms it to raster and subtracts depth from the output DEM.
r.drain: Traces a flow through an elevation model on a raster map.
r.fillnulls: Fills no-data areas in raster maps using v.surf.rst splines interpolation
r.fill.dir: Filters and generates a depressionless elevation map and a flow direction map from a given elevation layer.
r.flow: Construction of slope curves (flowlines), flowpath lengths, and flowline densities (upslope areas) from a raster digital elevation model (DEM)
r.topidx: Creates topographic index [ln(a/tan(beta))] map from elevation map.
r.terraflow: Flow computation for massive grids.
v.breach: Creates vector maps of lines and points of continuosly lowering elevation down the input watercourses, based on the input raster DEM.

r.gwflow: Numerical calculation program for transient, confined and unconfined groundwater flow in two dimensions.
r3.gwflow: Numerical calculation program for transient, confined groundwater flow in three dimensions.

r.topmodel: Simulates TOPMODEL which is a physically based hydrological model.
HydroFOSS: A distributed, physically based hydrological model.
SWAT: a river basin scale model developed to quantify the impact of land management practices in large, complex watersheds.
r.water.fea is an interactive program that allows the user to simulate storm water runoff analysis using the finite element numerical technique. Infiltration is calculated using the Green and Ampt formulation. r.water.fea computes and draws hydrographs for every basin as well as at stream junctions in an analysis area. It also draws animation maps at the basin level. The software is available within GRASS 4.x/5.x.

GIPE: The GRASS Image Processing Environment (GIPE) has USLE, Energy-balance and radiance-reflectance correction models. (r.hydro.CASC2D, a physically-based, distributed, raster hydrological model which simulates the hydrological response of a watershed subject to a given rainfall field, is temporarily here waiting to return to main GRASS)

r.sim.sediment: Sediment transport and erosion/deposition simulation using path sampling method (SIMWE)
r.sim.water: Overland flow hydrologic simulation using path sampling method (SIMWE)

For an overview, see R.stream.*.

r.stream.angle: Route azimuth, direction and relation to streams of higher order
r.stream.basins: Calculate basins according user input
r.stream.del: Calculate basins according user input
r.stream.distance: Calculate distance to and elevation above streams and outlets according user input. It can work in stream mode where target are streams and outlets mode where targets are outlets
r.stream.extract: Stream network extraction
r.stream.order: Calculate Strahler's and Horton's stream order Hack's main streams and Shreeve's stream magnitude. It use r.watershed or r.stream.extract output files: stream, direction and optionally accumulation. Output data can be either from r.watershed or r.stream.extract but not from both together
r.stream.pos: Route azimuth, direction and relation to streams of higher order
r.stream.stats:Calculate Horton's and optionally Hack's statistics according to user input

r.basin.fill: Generates a raster map layer showing watershed subbasins.
r.water.outlet: Generates a watershed basin from a drainage direction map (from r.watershed) and a set of coordinates representing the outlet point of watershed.
r.watershed: Watershed basin analysis program.
r.lake: Fills a lake to a target water level from a given start point.
r.basin: Generates the main morphometric parameters of the basin.
