a Calibration and validation of the discharge from the model. The first three figures show the simulated and observed monthly discharge at Yangcun, Nuxia, and Dexing stations. The pink solid lines represent the simulation, and the blue solid lines represent the observation. The last two figures show the daily discharge at the Nuxia and the Dexing. The pink solid lines represent the simulation, while the blue dots show the observation. b Calibration and validation of the snow cover from the model. The simulated (pink solid lines) and observed (blue dots) daily data for the fraction of the snow cover in the YT river basin (proportion from 0 to 100%). c Validation of the glacier mass balance from the model. The simulated (pink-dotted dot solid lines), reconstructed (yellow squares) and observed (blue dots) annual data for the glacier mass balance in the PARLUNG NO.94 Glacier.
