This study reveals a crucial discovery: when tweaking model parameters, similar performance metrics might mislead—different parameter settings can yield comparable results in snow depth predictions. This "equifinality" challenges past studies, suggesting that evaluating model tweaks based on performance alone might not reflect actual variations in snow depth forecasts.
