A comparative analysis is conducted to assess the quality of streamflow forecasts issued by two different modeling conceptualizations of catchment response, both driven by the same weather ensemble prediction system (PEARP Météo-France). The two hydrological modeling approaches are the physically based and distributed hydrometeorological model SIM (Météo-France) and the lumped soil-moisture-accounting type rainfall-runoff model GRP (Cemagref). Discharges are simulated at 211 catchments in France over 17 months. Skill scores are computed for the first 2 days of forecast range. The results suggest good
performance of both hydrological models and illustrate the benefit of streamflow data assimilation for ensemble short-term forecasting. Copyright ? 2010 Royal Meteorological Society
