The Unexploited Treasures of Hydrological Observations Beyond Streamflow for Catchment Modeling
Other hydrological data than streamflow have the potential to improve process consistency in hydrological modeling and consequently for predictions under change. The authors review how storage and flux variables are used for model evaluation and calibration; improving process representation.
Recent Developments and Emerging Challenges in Tracer-Aided Modeling
The authors reviewed recent advances and remaining challenges of tracer-aided modelling which offers insights into internal storages, water sources, flow pathways, mixing processes, and water ages, which cannot be derived from hydrometric data alone. Tracer data have the capability to falsify hydrological models and test hypotheses, and thus increase understanding of hydrological processes.
Seasonal and Inter-Annual Dynamics in Water Quality and Stream Metabolism in a Beaver-Impacted Drought-Sensitive Lowland Catchment
The authors monitored water quality parameters over 3 years in an intermittent stream network in the eutrophic, lowland Demnitzer Millcreek catchment, Germany. They focused on the effects of wetland systems impacted by beaver dams on the diurnal, seasonal and inter-annual variation in water quality dynamics and modelled stream metabolism.

Revising Common Approaches for Calibration: Insights From a 1-D Tracer-Aided Hydrological Model With High-Dimensional Parameters and Objectives
Dimensionality of parameters and objectives has been increasing due to the accelerating development of models and monitoring networks resulting in major challenges for model calibration. The study highlights limitations of high-dimensional calibration approaches, the role of data uncertainty and deficiencies in model structure of process-based ecohydrological models.
