Short summary
This study provides the first assessment of an European meteorological dataset (E-OBS) for hydrological applications. We compared the dataset to meteorological datasets developed at a country level, and tested how the different data influenced the simulation of streamflow with hydrological model. Our findings show that, despite some limitations, the European dataset offers a reasonable basis for hydrological modelling in most river catchments across Europe.
