Incorporating experimentally derived streamflow contributions into model parameterization to improve discharge prediction

Abstract ≥  0.8) but fails to provide robust predictions and realistic estimates of the contribution of the different streamflow components. Using a simple framework that compares simulated and observed contributions of hillslope, riparian zone, and groundwater to total discharge during two sub-periods, we show that the precision of simulated streamflow components can be increased, while remaining with accurate discharge simulations. We further show that the additional information increases the identifiability of all model parameters and results in more robust predictions. Our study shows how tracer-derived information on streamflow contributions can be used to improve the simulation and predictions of streamflow at the catchment scale without adding additional complexity to the model. The complementary use of temporally resolved observations of streamflow components and modeling provides a promising direction to improve discharge prediction by representing model internal dynamics more realistically.
