  abstract = {{T}his paper investigates whether the calibrated parameter values for two rainfall-runoff models based on historical observed data can be used to reliably predict runoff responses to changes in future climate inputs. {A}nalyses are carried out using historical monthly climate and runoff data from 27 catchments in {W}est and {C}entral {A}frica. {B}etter performances are obtained when the models are calibrated on a dry period to predict runoff in a wet period. {S}imilarly, it is easier for the models calibrated on a period of large hydroclimatic variability to predict runoff in a period of small hydroclimatic variability than the contrary. {T}his paper tests also the assumption that transferability of rainfall-runoff models, variable hydroclimatic conditions, and local sensitivity of the model parameters can be linked. {T}he inconclusive results still show variability according to the chosen efficiency criteria and selected periods. {A}ll these results indicate that the transfer of model parameters from one period to another can introduce a significant error in runoff simulations, which means increased uncertainty in the assessment of impact of climate and environmental changes, an essential question for {W}est and {C}entral {A}frica.},
