“…However, hydrology remains a data-scarce science, with many important variables (such as river flow, water quality, sediments, rainfall/snow depths, and groundwater levels) being severely under-sampled. This has decisive implications for our ability to assess and manage water resources, deal with challenges and forecast events (Beven et al, 2020, Cudennec et al, 2020, Pecora and Lins, 2020. Also, variables that are less used in practical applications can be crucial for the scientific understanding of complex processes and systems.…”

Abstract. Open, accessible, reusable, and reproducible hydrologic research can have a significant impact on the scientific community and broader society. While more individuals and organizations within the hydrology community are embracing open science practices, technical (e.g., limited coding experience), resource (e.g., open access fees), and social (e.g., fear of being scooped) challenges remain. Furthermore, there are a growing number of constantly evolving open science tools, resources, and initiatives that can seem overwhelming. These challenges and the ever-evolving nature of the open science landscape may seem insurmountable for hydrologists interested in pursuing open science. Therefore, we propose general Open Hydrology Principles to guide individual and community progress toward open science for research and education and the Open Hydrology Practical Guide to improve the accessibility of currently available tools and approaches. We aim to inform and empower hydrologists as they transition to open, accessible, reusable, and reproducible research. We discuss the benefits as well as common open science challenges and how hydrologists can overcome them. The Open Hydrology Principles and Open Hydrology Practical Guide reflect our knowledge of the current state of open hydrology; we recognize that recommendations and suggestions will evolve and expand with emerging open science infrastructures, workflows, and research experiences. Therefore, we encourage hydrologists all over the globe to join in and help advance open science by contributing to the living version of this document and by sharing open hydrology resources in the community-supported repository (https://open-hydrology.github.io).

“…A recent study found that only 1% of hydrology papers were fully reproducible (Stagge et al, 2019). Therefore, hydrologists must evolve to ensure their research is transparent and reproducible because doing so will strengthen their contribution to hydrologic research practices, resources, knowledge base, applications, and societal engagement and trust (Cudennec et al, 2020).…”

“…In hydrology, open science is becoming an important aspect of day-to-day research. There is growing momentum around public accessibility of hydrologic datasets (Pecora & Lins, 2020;WMO Data Conference, 2021;World Hydrological Cycle Observing System, n.d.) and calls for open research data (Addor et al, 2020;Cudennec et al, 2020;Lindersson et al, 2020;Zipper et al, 2019), research processes and approaches (Choi et al, 2021;Stagge et al, 2019;Wagener et al, 2020), and publication sharing (Blöschl et al, 2014;Rosenberg et al, 2019;Quinn et al, 2020).…”
