Short summary
LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) networks are excellent deep-learning tools to reproduce stream temperature observations, but their performances over the range of extreme (summer) stream temperature values have been overlooked. We tested strategies to improve the LSTM performances over the highest 10 % values of stream temperature observations. We found that the best strategy is to train the LSTM models at several locations with input variables that include static, catchment and reach attributes.
