ReAFFIRM: Real-time Assessment of Flash Flood Impacts: a Regional high-resolution Method [PDF]
, 2020 Flash floods evolve rapidly in time, which poses particular challenges to emergency managers. One way to support decision-making is to complement models that estimate the flash flood hazard (e.g.

Trends in the start of the wet season over Africa [PDF]
, 2008 A quarter of a century of daily rainfall data from the Global Telecommunications System are used to define the temporal and spatial variability of the start of the wet season over Africa and surrounding extreme south of Europe and parts of the Middle ...

Hydrological controls on river network connectivity [PDF]
, 2019 This study proposes a probabilistic approach for the quantitative assessment of reach- and network-scale hydrological connectivity as dictated by river flow space–time variability. Spatial dynamics of daily streamflows are estimated based on climatic and

A susceptibility-based rainfall threshold approach for landslide occurrence [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018 Abstract. Rainfall threshold determination is a pressing issue in the landslide scientific community. While main improvements have been made towards more reproducible techniques for the identification of triggering conditions for landsliding, the now well-established rainfall intensity or event – duration thresholds for landsliding suffer from several ...

Rainfall thresholds and flood warning: an operative case study [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2009 Abstract. An operative methodology for rainfall thresholds definition is illustrated, in order to provide at critical river section optimal flood warnings. Threshold overcoming could produce a critical situation in river sites exposed to alluvial risk and trigger the prevention and emergency system alert.

Effects of drainage ditches and stone bunds on topographical thresholds for gully head development in North Ethiopia [PDF]
, 2015 Gully erosion is an extreme process of land degradation operating in different regions of the world. A common way to quantify the susceptibility of land to gully incision is the use of topographical thresholds for different land use types.

Rainfall thresholds for the possible occurrence of landslides in Italy [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010 In Italy, rainfall is the primary trigger of landslides that frequently cause fatalities and large economic damage. Using a variety of information sources, we have compiled a catalogue listing 753 rainfall events that have resulted in landslides in Italy.
