Short summary
We proposed a method to calibrate hydrological models by selecting parameter range. The results show the probability distribution can be used to determine the optimal range of a single parameter. Analysis of parameter sensitivity and correlation is helpful to obtain the optimal combination of multi-parameter ranges which contributes to a higher and more concentrated value of the objective function. The findings can provide references for enhancing the precision of hydrological process modelling.
