Ensemble‐Based Spatially Distributed CLM5 Hydrological Parameter Estimation for the Continental United States
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems"
DOI: 10.1029/2024ms004227
Abstract: One of the major challenges in large‐domain hydrological modeling efforts lies in the estimation of spatially distributed hydrological parameters while simultaneously accounting for their associated uncertainties. Addressing this challenge is particularly difficult in ungauged locations.… read more here.
