Subjective decisions in hydrologic model calibration can have drastic impacts on our understanding of basin processes and simulated fluxes. Here, we present a multicase calibration approach to determine three pillars of an appropriate hydrological model configuration, i.e. calibration data length, spin-up period, and spatial resolution, using a spatially distributed meso-scale hydrological model (mHM) together with a dynamically dimensioned search (DDS) algorithm and Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) for the Moselle basin. The results show that a 10-year calibration data length, 2-year spin-up period, and 4-km model resolution are appropriate for the Moselle basin to reduce the computational burden while simulating streamflow with a decent performance. Although the calibration data length and spatial resolution are related to the extent and quality of the data, and the spin-up period is basin dependent, analysing the combined effects further allowed us to understand the interactions of these three usually overlooked pillars in the mHM configuration.
