Refining Rainfall Derived from Satellite Radar for Estimating Inflows at Lam Pao Dam, Thailand

open access: yesHydrology
This project aimed to evaluate the use of meteorological satellite-derived rainfall data to estimate water inflows to dams. In this study, the Lam Pao Dam in the Chi Basin, Thailand, was used as a case study.

Assessing Flood Early Warning Systems for Flash Floods

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2022
Flash floods are an increasing concern, especially in regions with abrupt topography and small areas where floods are rapid and energy-filled. That is the case of the El Guamo stream basin located in Manizales, Colombia.

Precipitation Estimation: From the RAO to EURAINSAT and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The key objective of the project "Use of the MSG SEVIRI channels in a combined SSM/I, TRMM and geostationary IR method for rapid updates of rainfall" is the development of algorithms for rapid-update of satellite rainfall estimations at the geostationary

Modified Convective Stratiform Technique (CSTm) Performance on Rainfall Estimation in Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2014
This study has analyzed a rainfall estimation using a modified convective stratiform technique (CSTm). Unlike the original convective stratiform technique (CST), which only utilizes infrared (IR) data, CSTm applies not only IR data but also passive ...

Probable maximum flood: the potential for estimation in the UK using ReFH2

open access: yesHydrology Research, 2023
The current reservoir safety guidance within the UK recommends the use of the FSR/FEH rainfall-runoff model to estimate PMF (probable maximum flood) peak flows for reservoirs within the highest risk category (A).

A comparative analysis of soft computing techniques used to estimate missing precipitation records [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Estimation of missing precipitation records is one of the most important tasks in hydrological and environmental study. The efficiency of hydrological and environmental models is subject to the completeness of precipitation data. This study compared some

Intercomparison of satellite-based and model-based rainfall analyses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Four satellite rain estimations based on microwave (MW), infrared (IR) or combined MW-IR techniques are compared with the BOlogna Limited Area Model (BOLAM) rain forecast for a severe weather event (8–13 November 2001) over the western Mediterranean Sea.

Rainfall-runoff modelling for flood frequency estimation

open access: yes, 2005
Rainfall-runoff models are amongst the most important tools for the practical solution of flood estimation problems, as well as for theoretical investigations of controls on the flood frequency curve or for analysis of catchment and climate change.

Dual-Polarization Radar-Based Quantitative Precipitation Estimation of Mountain Terrain Using Multi-Disdrometer Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The precipitation systems that pass over mountains develop rapidly due to the forcible ascent caused by the topography, and spatial rainfall distribution differences occur due to the local development of the system because of the topography.

Spatial and temporal variability of rainfall over the south-west coast of Bangladesh [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study examined the spatial and temporal rainfall variability from the 1940s to 2007 in the south west coastal region of Bangladesh. Time series statistical tests were applied to examine the spatial and temporal trends in three time segments (1948 ...
