Probabilistic forecast of daily areal precipitation focusing on extreme events

A dynamical downscaling scheme is usually used to provide a short range flood forecasting system with highresolved precipitation fields. Unfortunately, a single forecast of this scheme has a high uncertainty concerning intensity and location especially during extreme events. Alternatively, statistical downscaling techniques like the analogue method can be used which can supply a probabilistic f...

Extreme precipitation events: Data issues and meteorological causes

1 N umerous papers have documented an increase in extreme precipitation events in the US over the past 30 years or so. The fundamental cause of this trend is a subject of active research. The purpose of this study is to examine the meteorological factors that underlie the trend, specifically to determine the contributions of the major types of meteorological precipitation-producing systems to t...

Active Distribution Networks Restoration after Extreme Events

After extreme events such as floods, thunderstorms, blizzards and hurricanes there will be devastating effects in the distribution networks which may cause a partial or complete blackout. Then, the major concern for the system operators is to restore the maximum critical loads as soon as possible by available generation units.  In order to solve this problem, this paper provides a restoration s...
