Just to follow up on Crystal’s comments, 3D-RISM in the current release will not give the output you need for a direct comparison with GIST. This is in the works though. When it is available there will still be differences in the output due to the nature of the two theories. GIST is molecule based and distributions are for water molecules but RISM is a site-site theory, so contributions from hydrogen and oxygen are separated. This is something we are actively working on hope to have more to say soon.

Instead, 3D-RISM partitions these terms into atomic contribution, that is for oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
