Comparing Multi-Model Mosaic And Multi-Model Combination Methods To Simulate Streamflow Across The Contiguous USA

“[They] compared different multi-model approaches for streamflow simulation using 78 hydrological models across 559 catchments in the United States. [Their] results show that while multi-model combinations can slightly improve accuracy and reduce uncertainty, no single approach performs best everywhere.
One interesting takeaway is that a carefully selected single model can perform as well as more complex multi-model approaches when it is chosen based on a comparative evaluation rather than simply inherited from legacy operational systems... 👀”

“The ability to accurately predict streamflow underpins decisions in water management, flood prevention, and sectoral planning. Traditional approaches for streamflow prediction often rely on a single model, thereby overlooking potential benefits from using multiple models. To address this limitation, this study explores alternative methods that select and combine multiple models to enhance streamflow simulations. Specifically, [they] assess[ed] the performance of multi-model mosaic methods that assign a single model to each catchment, and multi-model combination methods that merge multiple models using static or dynamic weighting schemes. The Framework for Understanding Structural Errors (FUSE) is used to create an ensemble of 78 hydrological models, which were applied to 544 catchments from the CAMELS dataset across the contiguous United States. Each of the 78 models is calibrated utilizing a composite objective function, calculated as the average of a high-flow and a low-flow performance metric, to cover a wide range of streamflow conditions. Based on [their] selection of lumped FUSE models, the results show that a carefully chosen single model from a larger ensemble can closely approach the performance of more complex multi-model strategies. Among the multi-model approaches, the combination and mosaic methods show broadly similar overall skill, although the combination approaches deliver slightly higher performance and lower sampling uncertainty. However, per-catchment differences persist, indicating that no single multi-model strategy dominates everywhere. This heterogeneity in performance makes it difficult to determine a priori which multi-model method will best represent streamflow in a given catchment…”

Our team working hard to analyze the complex patterns of #CompoundFlooding in New York, during the National Water Center Summer Institute 2023 in Tuscaloosa.
By using #hydrologic & #hydrodynamic coupled modeling and #MachineLearning, we're trying to understand the key drivers of #flooding events in #NYC under different #ClimateChange scenarios.
