Modelling everything everywhere: a new approach to decision-making for water management under uncertainty (2012, background): “Models can be treated as hypotheses about how the catchment system functions (Beven, 2002, 2009, 2010).”
GLUE: 20 years on (2014, background): “These effects cannot be separated (Beven, 2005, 2006).”
Impact of the numbers of observations and calibration parameters on equifinality, model performance, and output and parameter uncertainty (2015, background): “…of equifinality, nonuniqueness, and nonidentifiability of parameters have been discussed for the last three decades in hydrologic modelling (Sorooshian andGupta, 1983; Beven, 1989, 1993, 2001, 2002, and 2006; Beven and Binley, 1992; Gan and Biftu, 1996; Franks et al., 1997; Beven and Freer, 2001).”
Searching for the Holy Grail of scientific hydrology: Q t =( S, R, Δt ) A as closure (2006, methodology): “…is possible at all) would be the deﬁning act of scientiﬁc hydrology (it would not be the end of scientiﬁc hydrology as there would still be some interesting problems associated with applying that solution to di ﬀ erent applications in di ﬀ erent places, see, for example, Beven, 2000, 2002).”
A manifesto for the equifinality thesis (2006, background): “…to be defined, the values of which will require calibration – but often without additional data being collected with the aim of determining those values (and in many cases, of course, direct measurement of parameters at the scale required by the model may not be possible, see Beven, 1989, 2002a,b).”
