Applying identical noise, (σ = 10), to 6595 U.S. gages, models with identical RMSE (∼10) results in NSE values from −325,272 to 1.0 which corresponds with flow variability rather than model fit. If noise is scaled to 25 % of mean flow, spatial patterns in NSE and KGE persist that reflect flow characteristics rather than accuracy and misrepresent accuracy. NSE and KGE are skill scores and useful for within-site model calibration, not cross-site accuracy comparisons. Metrics such as RMSE, normalized RMSE, or percent bias offer more interpretable, transferable accuracy evaluations. I advocate abandoning NSE and KGE for comparisons of model performance and urge hydrologists to adopt fit-for-purpose metrics. I present this study as a position paper, rather than a research paper, the limitations of NSE and KGE—particularly their dependence on flow variability and unsuitability for cross-site comparisons—are well known and have been addressed extensively in the literature.

While surrogate models like graph neural networks (GNNs) offer a faster alternative, they require large, expensive-to-generate, high-fidelity training datasets. This study addresses the critical challenge of creating accurate surrogate models with limited high-fidelity data. We propose a novel multi-fidelity graph neural network (MFGNN) framework that integrates numerous inexpensive, coarse-resolution simulations with a few high-fidelity runs. The method uses a hierarchical pipeline where one GNN learns broad flood patterns from low-fidelity data, and a second GNN learns to predict and apply a high-resolution correction based on the residual error. Comprehensive validation across diverse fluvial and pluvial flood scenarios demonstrates that the MFGNN framework significantly reduces prediction error compared to a standard GNN trained with an equivalent computational budget. This computationally efficient, novel framework makes development of accurate, high-resolution surrogate models for large floodplains feasible by lowering the data-generation barrier.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":310,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Modelling & Software","volume":"193 ","pages":"Article 106654"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144902439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
