The critical role of the routing scheme in simulating peak river discharge in global hydrological models

The critical role of the routing scheme in simulating peak river discharge in global hydrological models

Global hydrological models (GHMs) have been applied to assess global flood hazards, but their capacity to capture the timing and amplitude of peak river discharge—which is crucial in flood simulations—has traditionally not been the focus of examination. Here we evaluate to what degree the choice of...
