...Further, climatic indices have been shown to be good predictors of streamflow indices (Beck et al., 2015; Kuentz et al., 2017)....

...Finally, predictions could be improved by training the random forests over smaller regions (Kuentz et al., 2017; Nearing et al., 2016), but this would be done at the expense of the generality of the statistical model....

...…following one of these three approaches: (i) by employing a statistical model using catchment attributes as predictors (Beck et al., 2013, 2015; Kuentz et al., 2017; Lacey & Grayson, 1998; Nathan &McMahon, 1992; Yadav et al., 2007), (ii) by transferring signatures from gauged catchments…...

...Three of these studies (Beck et al., 2015; Kuentz et al., 2017; Westerberg et al., 2016) assess the regionalization of several signatures over a large number of gauging stations (3,000 to 4,000 depending on the signature, 1,366 and 43, respectively) in different regions (global, Europe and United…...

...This enables in particular catchment classification (Sawicz et al., 2011) and provides insights into hydrological behavior in places where little to no data are available apart from streamflow (Kuentz et al., 2017)....

...…slope, and land use, together with streamflow characteristics, often in the form of streamflow signatures such asmean flow and slope of the flow duration curve, to group similar catchments (e.g., Coopersmith et al., 2012; Kuentz et al., 2016; Sawicz et al., 2011, 2014; Yadav et al., 2007)....

(2005), Yilmaz et al. (2008), Euser et al. (2013), Pechlivanidis and Arheimer (2015), and Kuentz et al. (2017)....

...The method groups clustering objects (catchments) so that the within class variability is minimized using a combination of the k-means algorithm (Hartigan and Wong, 1979) and Ward’s minimum-variance method (Ward, 1963)....
