“…We tested six TTDs commonly applied in hydrologic systems: the exponential, linear, exponential‐piston flow (EPF), linear‐piston flow (LPF), advection–dispersion (AD, Maloszewski & Zuber, ; Cook & Böhlke, ), and the gamma model (Kirchner, Feng, & Neal, ). Although the EPF and AD models have been used in riverbank infiltration studies (e.g., Kármán, Maloszewski, Deák, Fórizs, & Szabó, ; Maloszewski, Rauert, Trimborn, Herrmann, & Rau, ; Stichler et al, ; Stichler et al, ) and in groundwater studies (e.g., Cartwright & Morgenstern, ; M. K. Stewart, Morgenstern, Gusyev, & Małoszewski, ), the exponential and gamma models have been widely applied for catchment mTT modelling (cf. K. J. McGuire & McDonnell, ; Hrachowitz et al, ).…”
