Probabilistic Downscaling for Flood Hazard Models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Riverine flooding poses significant risks. Developing strategies to manage flood risks requires flood projections with decision-relevant scales and well-characterized uncertainties, often at high spatial resolutions. However, calibrating high-resolution flood models can be computationally prohibitive.
