Statistical error metrics of the CMFD-S based on evaluation at the removed 40 stations compared with the gridded background (GLDAS NOAH10SUBP 3H or TRMM 3B42) dataset, for the period of 2001–2010. Panels from left to right in each row are the mean bias error (MBE), root mean square error (RMSE) and coefficient of determination (R2), respectively. All the error metrics are calculated on daily scale. The top and bottom boundaries of a box are the upper and lower quartiles of the statistic indices at these stations, while the line inside the box is the median. The vertical dashed lines extending from the box represent the minimum and maximum of the corresponding indices. Additionally, the dots denote the mean values of the indices. The red line in each left panel denotes MBE = 0.
