Trend analysis of dependence between rainfall and storm tides in coastal cities

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2023
Compound flooding from rainfall and storm tides is prone to occur in coastal cities. The identification of them is essential for controlling urban flooding. First, the dependence between rainfall and storm tides is quantified by Kendall's τ, Spearman's ρ,

Predicting Rainfall in the Context of Rainfall Derivatives Using Genetic Programming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rainfall is one of the most challenging variables to predict, as it exhibits very unique characteristics that do not exist in other time series data. Moreover, rainfall is a major component and is essential for applications that surround water resource ...

Performance and runoff coefficient of permeable concretes subjected to heavy rainfall simulations

open access: yesMatéria (Rio de Janeiro), 2022
ABSTRACT The use of permeable concrete pavements can mitigate flooding in densely populated areas by serving as a functional and sustainable mechanism for surface water absorption and drainage. However, it is found that the performance of the pavement is often limited to low and moderate flows and that the absorption capacity of the concrete matrix ...

Optimization of Rainfall Sensor Network Layout Based on the Correlation Coefficient Method [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2016 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence: Technologies and Applications, 2016
The unreasonable layout of rain sensor networks results in various problems, such as the redundancy of observation nodes, large daily maintenance overhead, and the difficulty of solving faults in real time. A sensor network optimization algorithm based on the correlation coefficient method is proposed in this work.

Climatology of daily rainfall semi-variance in The Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Rain gauges can offer high quality rainfall measurements at their locations. Networks of rain gauges can offer better insight into the space-time variability of rainfall, but they tend to be too widely spaced for accurate estimates between points.
