Have applications of continuous rainfall-runoff simulation realized the vision for process-based flood frequency analysis? [PDF]
, 2016 Keith Beven was amongst the first to propose and demonstrate a combination of conceptual rainfall–runoff modelling and stochastically generated rainfall data in what is known as the ‘continuous simulation’ approach for flood frequency analysis.

Deep Uncertainty Surrounding Coastal Flood Risk Projections: A Case Study for New Orleans
, 2017 Future sea-level rise drives severe risks for many coastal communities. Strategies to manage these risks hinge on a sound characterization of the uncertainties. For example, recent studies suggest that large fractions of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) may
