An investigation of the effects of model structure on model performance to reduce discharge simulation uncertainty in two catchments [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences, 2008
This paper investigates the variations of model performance caused by different model structures in both flow processes and model complexity level. Two case studies indicate that model efficiency is strongly dependent on model structure.
