GloFAS-ERA5 operational global river discharge reanalysis 1979–present [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2020 Estimating how much water is flowing through rivers at the global scale is challenging due to a lack of observations in space and time. A way forward is to optimally combine the global network of earth system observations with advanced numerical weather ...

Evaluating the impact of post-processing medium-range ensemble streamflow forecasts from the European Flood Awareness System [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Streamflow forecasts provide vital information to aid emergency response preparedness and disaster risk reduction. Medium-range forecasts are created by forcing a hydrological model with output from numerical weather prediction systems. Uncertainties are

COMPARISON BETWEEN DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF INPE'S FIRE RISK MODEL FOR THE BRAZILIAN BIOMES [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020 Fires are intrinsic disturbances in ecosystems functioning and structure in fire-prone biomes. In recent decades there has been an increase in the number of fire events in Brazilian biomes, especially due to misuse of fire in the land use and ...

Why do some probabilistic forecasts lack reliability? [PDF]
, 2019 In this work, we investigate the reliability of the probabilistic binary forecast. We mathematically prove that a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for achieving a reliable probabilistic forecast is maximizing the Peirce skill score (PSS) at the ...

Observation Based Deep Learning Model for Short-duration Heavy Rain Nowcasting
Gaoyuan qixiang, 2023 Short-duration heavy rain（HR） causes serious disasters.However， because of its local abrupt occurrence and evenly distribution， it is difficult to be nowcasted and warned with lead times of 0~2 hours by traditional extrapolations of radar echos.Radar ...

Plastic in global rivers: are floods making it worse?
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Riverine plastic pollution is of global concern due to its negative impact on ecosystem health and human livelihood. Recent studies show a strong link between river discharge and plastic transport, but the role of floods is still unresolved.
