A fuzzy logic technique for identifying nonprecipitating echoes in radar scans
(American Meteorological Society, 2006-09)
Article
Open AccessBecause echoes caused by nonmeteorological targets significantly affect radar scans, contaminated bins must be identified and eliminated before precipitation can be quantitatively estimated from radar measurements. Under ... -

An operational flood warning system for poorly gauged basins: demonstration in the Guadalhorce basin (Spain)
(2013-11-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper deals with the presentation of a flood warning system (GFWS) developed for the specific characteristics of the Guadalhorce basin (3,200 km2, SE of Spain), which is poorly gauged and often affected by flash and ... -
Comparison of two early warning systems for regional flash flood hazard forecasting
(Elsevier, 2019-05)
Article
Open AccessThe anticipation of flash flood events is crucial to issue warnings to mitigate their impact. This work presents a comparison of two early warning systems for real-time flash flood hazard forecasting at regional scale. The ... -

Hydrological evaluation of a nowcasting technique applied to flood forecasting
(American Meteorological Society, 2003)
Conference report
Open Access -
Hydrological validation of a radar-based nowcasting technique
(2005-08)
Article
Open AccessNowcasting precipitation is a key element in the anticipation of floods in warning systems. In this framework, weather radars are very useful because of the high resolution of their measurements both in time and space. ... -

Large wood debris that clogged bridges followed by a sudden release: the 2019 flash flood in Catalonia
(Elsevier, 2023-06)
Article
Open AccessThe aim is the reconstruction of the October 2019 flash flood, that was documented through extensive field work: rainfall (300 mm in just a few hours), flood marks, times of flood passage and witnesses' snapshots and ... -
Predicción probabilística de hidrogramas de avenida y de volúmenes de aportación a embalses
(Comité Nacional Español de Grandes Presas (SPANCOLD), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyLa Agència Catalana de l’Aigua (ACA) está promoviendo el desarrollo de una herramienta para disponer de predicciones probabilísticas de caudales, en estaciones de aforo, y de evolución de volúmenes, en embalses. Esta ... -
ReAFFIRM: Real-time Assessment of Flash Flood Impacts: a Regional high-resolution Method
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
Article
Open AccessFlash 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. discharge or return period) ... -
Validation of a nowcasting technique from a hydrological perspective
(2004)
Conference report
Open AccessNowcasting precipitation is a key point to anticipate risks in flood warning systems. In this environment, weather radars are very useful because of the high resolution of their measurements both in time and space. The ...
