| Watershed Description: | 100,458 km^2 Curonian Lagoon drainage area, which consists of the Minija River and Nemunas River major subbasins and drains portions of Belarus, Lithuania, Poland and the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia. |
| Calibration Summary: | Calibration was performed using monthly streamflow data and evaluated using the coefficient of determination (R2) and the Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency coefficient (NSE). The calculated values of the R2 and NSE for the Nemunas and Minija Rivers stations were 0.81 and 0.79. |
| Validation Summary: | The calculated values of the R2 and NSE for the Nemunas and Minija Rivers stations: 0.679 and 0.602 for the validation period. |
