Adaptation of UFORE-Hydro model for Szeged and the southern region of the Great Hungarian Plainbased on local meteorological database

Acta climatologica et chorologica, 2020
Urban environments are very different from natural ones in many cases. The geometry of the buildings and the various artificial surface elements can significantly influence the microclimatic and hydrological processes. In urban areas, the surface is mostly artificial and it is hard to find natural, undisturbed surfaces, in addition, the vast majority ...
