From:Advances in Meteorology (Vol. 2018) Peer-ReviewedRecently, the use of the numerical rainfall forecast has become a common approach to improve the lead time of streamflow forecasts for flood control and reservoir regulation. The control forecasts of five operational...
-
From:Advances in Meteorology (Vol. 2018) Peer-ReviewedPrecipitation forecasting has great significance for hydrological modelling, particularly for issuing flood alerts. This study assesses the high-resolution deterministic model ALADIN-CZ (Aire Limitee, Adaptation...
-
From:Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (Vol. 373) Peer-ReviewedHow long a river remembers its past is still an open question. Perturbations occurring in large catchments may impact the flow regime for several weeks and months, therefore providing a physical explanation for the...

From:Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (Vol. 370, Issue 370) Peer-ReviewedFloods are devastating natural disasters with a significant impact on human life and the surrounding environment. This paper analyses historical and recent flood (2012 extreme) peak flow at strategic locations, land use...

From:Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 18, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedFlood loss modelling is a crucial part of risk assessments. However, it is subject to large uncertainty that is often neglected. Most models available in the literature are deterministic, providing only...

From:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedWe present a multi-sensor Bayesian passive microwave retrieval algorithm for flood inundation mapping at high spatial and temporal resolutions. The algorithm takes advantage of observations from multiple sensors in...

From:Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 19, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed
One of the key priorities for disaster risk reduction is to ensure decision makers, stakeholders, and the public understand their exposure to disaster risk, so that they can take protective action. Flood maps are a...

From:Nature (Vol. 574, Issue 7776) Peer-ReviewedUnited Nations report predicts more powerful storms, increased risk of flooding and dwindling fisheries if greenhouse-gas output doesn't fall. United Nations report predicts more powerful storms, increased risk of...

From:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 22, Issue 8) Peer-Reviewed
Extreme pluvial floods across China's Yangtze River basin in the summer of 2016 were strongly connected with intense atmospheric moisture transport, and resulted in vast loss of properties after a strong El Niño...
-
From:Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (Vol. 370, Issue 370) Peer-ReviewedMeteorological and hydrological centres around the world are looking at ways to improve their capacity to be able to produce and deliver skilful and reliable forecasts of high-impact extreme rainfall and flooding events...

From:Advances in MeteorologyPeer-ReviewedSatellite-based real-time and post-real-time precipitation estimates of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA-3B42) were evaluated during an extreme heavy precipitation...
-
From:Advances in Fuzzy SystemsFloods belong to the most hazardous natural disasters and their disaster management heavily relies on precise forecasts. These forecasts are provided by physical models based on differential equations. However, these...
-
From:Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 20, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedIn operational flood risk management, a single best model is used to assess the impact of flooding, which might misrepresent uncertainties in the modelling process. We have used quantified uncertainties in flood...
-
From:Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (Vol. 383) Peer-ReviewedFlooding has been the most severe hazard in China from time immemorial, due to its special geographical, climatic and socio-economic conditions. In recent years, against the background of global climate change and rapid...
-
From:Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 20, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedThis paper is a continuation of the authors' previous paper (Part 1) on the feasibility of ensemble flood forecasting for a small dam catchment (Kasahori dam; approx. 70 km.sup.2) in Niigata, Japan, using a...
-
From:Earth System Science Data (Vol. 14, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedGlobal-scale river routing models (RRMs) are commonly used in a variety of studies, including studies on the impact of climate change on extreme flows (floods and droughts), water resources monitoring or large-scale...
-
From:Advances in Meteorology (Vol. 2017) Peer-ReviewedAccurate soil moisture information is very important for real-time flood forecasting. Although satellite soil moisture observations are useful information, their validations are generally hindered by the large spatial...
-
From:Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (Vol. 370, Issue 370) Peer-ReviewedThe STAR-FLOOD (Strengthening and Redesigning European Flood Risk Practices Towards Appropriate and Resilient Flood Risk Governance Arrangements) project, funded by the European Commission, investigates strategies for...

From:Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (Vol. 373) Peer-ReviewedData assimilation has the potential to improve flood forecasting. However, it is rarely employed in distributed hydrologic models for operational predictions. In this study, we present variational assimilation of river...
