Understanding predictive uncertainty in hydrologic modeling: The challenge of identifying input and structural errors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the total predictive uncertainty and its decomposition into input and structural components under different inference scenarios, and highlight the inherent limitations of inferring inaccurate hydrologic models using rainfall runoff data with large unknown errors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Critical evaluation of parameter consistency and predictive uncertainty in hydrological modeling: A case study using Bayesian total error analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study presented a challenging calibration of the lumped GR4J model to a catchment with ephemeral responses and large rainfall gradients, and BATEA provided consistent, albeit more uncertain, parameter estimates and thus overcomes one of the obstacles to parameter regionalization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of a Gaussian copula for multivariate extreme value analysis: Some case studies in hydrology

TL;DR: In this paper, the Gaussian copula has been used for field significance determination, regional risk analysis, discharge-duration-frequency (QdF) models with design hydrograph derivation and regional frequency analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a reliable decomposition of predictive uncertainty in hydrological modeling: Characterizing rainfall errors using conditional simulation

TL;DR: It is shown that independently derived data quality estimates are needed to decompose the total uncertainty in the runoff predictions into the individual contributions of rainfall, runoff, and structural errors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regional methods for trend detection: Assessing field significance and regional consistency

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe regional methods for assessing field significance and regional consistency for trend detection in hydrological extremes, using daily discharge data arising from 195 gauging stations in France.
