Model validation is the formal confirmation of the model quality criteria achieved in model calibration, using a set of independent data while now keeping the model forcing and model parameters fixed.
This is the common definition for Model validation, other definitions can be discussed in the article

Notes

This definition is based on practical experience in modelling surface water behaviour. See also Reduction of uncertainties through Data Model Integration (DMI).
