OpenForecast results in 2020-2021

OpenForecast is the first national-scale operational runoff forecasting system in Russia. The presented data supports a research article on a long-term assessment of OpenForecast performance in 2020-2021. File listing: calibration_vs_hindcast.npy -- Python dictionary that provides results of efficiency assessment for calibration and evaluation (hindcast) periods in terms of NSE and KGE metrics for individual hydrological models (GR4J_NSE, GR4J_KGE, HBV_NSE, HBV_KGE). hindcast_vs_forecast.npy -- Python dictionary that provides results of efficiency assessment for hindcast, pre-operational hindcast, and forecast periods in terms of NSE and KGE metrics for individual hydrological models (GR4J_NSE, GR4J_KGE, HBV_NSE, HBV_KGE), as well as their ensemble mean (ENS). meteo_forecast.npy -- Python dictionary that reports correlation coefficients between ICON and ERA5 reanalysis for air temperature and precipitation forecasts. users.csv -- daily numbers of OpenForecast users.
