From Lumped to Spatially Distributed Hydrologic Modeling: A Data‐Driven Framework Evaluated Across North American Catchments
Integrated Gradients (IG) analysis shows that the model learns physically coherent spatial behavior, highlighting grid cells near the outlet and identifying dominant meteorological drivers of peak runoff events, and outline a pathway toward interpretable, large‐scale streamflow prediction.
