Flash Flood Forecasting by Statistical Learning in the Absence of Rainfall Forecast: A Case Study
The feasibility of flash flood forecasting without making use of rainfall predictions is investigated. After a presentation of the “cevenol flash floods“, which caused 1.2 billion Euros of economical damages and 22 fatalities in 2002, the difficulties incurred in the forecasting of such events are analyzed, with emphasis on the nature of the database and the origins of measurement noise. The hi...
متن کاملFlash Flood Forecasting: An Ingredients-Based Methodology
An approach to forecasting the potential for flash flood–producing storms is developed, using the notion of basic ingredients. Heavy precipitation is the result of sustained high rainfall rates. In turn, high rainfall rates involve the rapid ascent of air containing substantial water vapor and also depend on the precipitation efficiency. The duration of an event is associated with its speed of ...
متن کاملA spatially distributed flash flood forecasting model
This paper presents a distributed model that is in operational use for forecasting flash floods in northern Austria. The main challenge in developing the model was parameter identification which was addressed by a modelling strategy that involved a model structure defined at the model element scale and multi-source model identification. The model represents runoff generation on a grid basis and...
متن کاملSolar Radiation Forecasting, Accounting for Daily Variability
Radiation forecast accounting for daily and instantaneous variability was pursued by means of a new bi-parametric statistical model that builds on a model previously proposed by the same authors. The statistical model is developed with direct reference to the Liu-Jordan clear sky theoretical expression but is not bound by a specific clear sky model; it accounts separately for the mean daily var...
متن کاملMerging multiple precipitation sources for flash flood forecasting
r a 200 .007 : +886 2 tu.edu.t Summary We investigated the effectiveness of combining gauge observations and satellite-derived precipitation on flood forecasting. Two data merging processes were proposed: the first one assumes that the individual precipitation measurement is non-bias, while the second process assumes that each precipitation source is biased and both weighting factor and bias pa...
