  - "The time that rainfall takes to reach the outlet of a catchment as discharge
    (transit time) is a fundamental and\r\nintegrated measure of catchment hydrological
    processes and solute transport mechanisms. As such, many efforts\r\nhave been
    dedicated to its understanding and quantification. However, defining and ranking
    which factors,\r\ninternal and external to the system, control the distributions
    of transit time is still an open challenge. Here, we\r\ndevelop a two-stage approach
    to explore climate and topography controls on transit time, using a fully distributed
    hydrological model coupled with a transport component. Specifically, we apply
    the model to two\r\nsynthetic topographies under five observed climate regimes.
    With this setup, water fluxes from two years of daily\r\nrainfall events are singularly
    tracked across the catchments to then derive the distributions of transit time
    and\r\nfraction of young water for each combination of topography and climate.
    Results highlight a considerable\r\nvariability of transit times in all climates
    and a pronounced effect of topography within a given climate. They\r\nfurther
    reveal that for wet climates it is possible to define a curve describing water
    transit time as a function of\r\ncumulative discharge that only depends on topographic
    properties. On the contrary, in dry climates the variability of transit time and
    young water fraction is much larger and not amenable to a simple summary. Despite\r\nsimplifications,
    quantitative model-based inferences of transit time distributions are useful to
    better understand\r\nhow climate and topography affect catchment functioning.@eng"
