Comparison of three different numerical implementations to model rainfall-runoff transformation on roofs
(Wiley, 2022)
[Abstract:] Roofs represent a high percentage of the impervious surfaces in urban areas, and hence their implementation in urban drainage models is essential for accurate results to be achieved. Current modelling approaches ...
Analysis of two sources of variability of basin outflow hydrographs computed with the 2D shallow water model Iber: Digital Terrain Model and unstructured mesh size
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract:] Modelling hydrological processes with fully distributed models based on the shallow water equations implies a high computational cost, which often limits the resolution of the computational mesh. Therefore, in ...
Flood risk in urban areas: modelling, management and adaptation to climate change. A review
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract:] The modelling and management of flood risk in urban areas are increasingly recognized as global challenges. The complexity of these issues is a consequence of the existence of several distinct sources of risk, ...
Editorial: flood susceptibility and risk maps as a crucial tool to face the hydrological extremes in developing countries: technical and governance aspects linked by a participatory approach
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
[Abstract:] In summary, this Research Topic wants to draw attention to two points of reflection: 1) The need to involve stakeholders at all levels in the planning of actions aimed at reducing the risks associated with ...
An Augmented Reality Facility to Run Hybrid Physical-Numerical Flood Models
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] This article presents a novel installation for the development of hybrid physical-numerical flood models in an augmented reality environment. This installation extends the concept introduced by the well-known ...
How Do Modeling Choices and Erosion Zone Locations Impact the Representation of Connectivity and the Dynamics of Suspended Sediments in a Multi-Source Soil Erosion Model?
(Copernicus GmbH, 2021)
[Abstract] Soil erosion and suspended sediment transport understanding is an important issue in terms of soil and water resources management in the critical zone. In mesoscale watersheds (>10 km2) the spatial distribution ...
MERLIN: a flood hazard forecasting system for coastal river reaches
(Springer, 2020)
[Abstract:] This study presents MERLIN, an innovative flood hazard forecasting system for predicting discharges and water levels at flood prone areas of coastal catchments. Discharge forecasts are preceded by a hindcast ...
Effect of rainfall uncertainty on the performance of physically based rainfall–runoff models
(Wiley, 2019)
[Abstract:] This paper analyses the effect of rain data uncertainty on the performance of two hydrological models with different spatial structures: a semidistributed and a fully distributed model. The study is performed ...
A robust method to update local river inundation maps using global climate model output and weather typing based statistical downscaling
(Springer, 2020)
[Abstract:] Global warming is changing the magnitude and frequency of extreme precipitation events. This requires updating local rainfall intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves and flood hazard maps according to the ...
Global and local sensitivity analysis to improve the understanding of physically-based urban wash-off models from high-resolution laboratory experiments
(Elsevier, 2019)
[Abstract:] Physically-based urban wash-off models are a promising means of studying the transport of finer suspended solids and their associated pollutants during rain events, considering spatial and temporal heterogeneities. ...
