Sensitivity analysis of runoff modeling to statistical downscaling models in the western Mediterranean

. This paper analyzes the sensitivity of a hydrological model to different methods to statistically downscale climate precipitation and temperature over four western Mediterranean basins illustrative of different hydro-meteorological situations. The comparison was conducted over a common 20-year period (1986&ndsh;2005) to capture different climatic conditions in the basins. The daily GR4j conceptual model was used to simulate streamflow...
