Hydrologic verification: A call for action and collaboration [PDF]

, 2007
Traditionally, little attention has been focused on the systematic verification of operational hydrologic forecasts. This paper summarizes the results of forecasts verification from 15 river basins in the United States.

Methods and tools to support real time risk-based flood forecasting - a UK pilot application

E3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Flood managers have traditionally used probabilistic models to assess potential flood risk for strategic planning and non-operational applications. Computational restrictions on data volumes and simulation times have meant that information on the risk of

Urban Pluvial Flood Forecasting

, 2012
Two main approaches to enhance urban pluvial flood prediction were developed and tested in this research: (1) short-term rainfall forecast based on rain gauge networks, and (2) customisation of urban drainage models to improve hydraulic simulation speed.

Revealing Deep Learning Model Preferences for Spatio‐Temporal Drivers of Runoff Forecasting: A SHAP‐Based Comparative Study

Journal of Flood Risk Management
Accurate runoff forecasting is essential for flood prediction and disaster preparedness amid increasing hydrological extremes driven by climate change. While deep learning models offer high efficiency, most interpretability studies focus on single models.

Improving rainfall nowcasting and urban runoff forecasting through dynamic radar-raingauge rainfall adjustment [PDF]

, 2013
The insufficient accuracy of radar rainfall estimates is a major source of uncertainty in short-term quantitative precipitation forecasts (QPFs) and associated urban flood forecasts.

Flood forecasting using a coupled hydrological and hydraulic model (based on FVM) and highresolution meteorological model

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
A forecasting systems based on the coupling of meteorological, hydrologic, hydraulic and risk models is used to minimize the risks associated to water scarcity and flooding.

For Flood Forecasting Issues

Works of Georgian Technical University
. Global climate change has caused sharp increasing of natural calamities, including floods. In the course of recent period, over the entire world, every year there are occurring tens of cases of disastrous floods and waterflows characterized by damages worth of several millions and human losses.

Real-Time Flood Forecasting [PDF]

, 2011
Flood forecasting is a non-structural measure in flood risk management. Real-time flood forecasting provides valuable information for flood warning services so that the general public and emergency agencies would have sufficient time to prepare counter-measures against the impending floods.
