Streamflow is the spatial integral of basin input, storage, and runoff processes. It provides a direct measure of water availability and the impact of climate change and human activities at the basin level (Milly et al., 2005;Hannah et al., 2011). Quantifying streamflow regimes and their spatiotemporal similarity can reveal valuable insights on the controlling hydroclimatic, geomorphic, and ecological processes, improving water resources planning and management (Coopersmith et al., 2012;Ghotbi et al., 2020). Current practices in hydrological modeling are either depth driven or breadth driven (Gupta et al., 2014). The former category seeks to improve process understanding at the catchment scale, aiming to provide detailed and physically realistic catchment models for a specific basin through in situ sampling and long-term monitoring (Blöschl et al., 2019); while the latter focuses on the development and application of hydrological models at the continental and global scales, seeking to provide a global assessment of water scarcity (
