Evaluation of river flood extent simulated with multiple global hydrological models and climate forcings
Global flood models (GFMs) are increasingly being used to estimate global-scale societal and economic risks of river flooding. Recent validation studies have highlighted substantial differences in performance between GFMs and between validation sites. However, it has not been systematically quantifi...
