Spatial distribution characteristics of splashing rainfall caused by nappe flow impingement on a plunge pool

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Splashing is the main atomization source for a jet impinging on a liquid layer. Increased understanding of splashing rainfall characteristics can help to reduce the hazard of flood discharge atomization in hydraulic engineering.

Analysis of Urban Flood Inundation Patterns According to Rainfall Intensity Using a Rainfall Simulator in the Sadang Area of South Korea

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
An urban flood in the Sadang area located in South Korea was reproduced using a rainfall simulator. The rainfall simulator was developed to be able to demonstrate the rainfall intensity in range of 80−200 mm/h, and the artificial rainfall was ...

Quantitative Kinetic Energy Estimated from Disdrometer Signal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The kinetic energy of the rain drops was predicted in a relation between the rain rate and rain quantity, derived directly from the rain drop size distribution (DSD), which had been measured by a disdrometer located in the eastern state of Alagoas ...

Effects of rainfall patterns on runoff and soil erosion in field plots

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2015
Soil erosion processes during a storm are strongly affected by intra-storm variations in rainfall characteristics. Four storm patterns, each with a different rainfall intensity variation were separated.

Intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) rainfall curves in Senegal [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Abstract. Urbanization resulting from sharply increasing demographic pressure and infrastructure development has made the populations of many tropical areas more vulnerable to extreme rainfall hazards. Characterizing extreme rainfall distribution in a coherent way in space and time is thus becoming an overarching need that requires using appropriate ...

Derivation and evaluation of landslide-triggering thresholds by a Monte Carlo approach [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
Assessment of landslide-triggering rainfall thresholds is useful for early warning in prone areas. In this paper, it is shown how stochastic rainfall models and hydrological and slope stability physically based models can be advantageously combined in a
