DOI: 10.1038/s41597-025-05014-8
Abstract: A 9-km daily gridded streamflow dataset is generated using the Variable Infiltration Capacity-River Routing Model (VIC-RRM) across the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna River basins over 1951–2023, forced by the ERA5-Land reanalysis data for naturalized streamflow. Physically consistent streamflow… read more here.
