CRAHI - Centre de Recerca Aplicada en Hidrometeorologia
El principal objectiu del CRAHI és desenvolupar metodologies i sistemes per donar resposta científica i tècnica a les necessitats en el camp de la previsió hidrometeorològica, la gestió dels recursos i els riscos hídrometeorològics, incloent l’impacte dels efectes del canvi climàtic. Per això es combinen les observacions i el processat de dades de teledetecció amb la modelització dels processos i el disseny d'aplicacions informàtiques operacionals de previsió i alerta en temps real pel suport a la presa de decisions i la gestió de recursos i emergències.
El CRAHI orienta su actividad a dar respuesta científica y tecnológica a las necesidades en el campo de la gestión y la previsión hidrometeorológica. En particular al desarrollo de algoritmos y modelos de previsión de los procesos que controlan el ciclo del agua superficial.
The CRAHI focuses its activity on providing scientific and technological support in the area of hydrometeorological management and forecasting, particularly on developing models of the processes that drive the cycle of surface waters.

The ANYWHERE paradigm shift in responding to weather and climate emergencies: impact forecasting, dynamic vulnerability and the need for citizen's involvement
(John Wiley & sons, 2024)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis chapter summarizes the paradigm shift in responding to weather and climate emergencies based in the project results and lessons learnt during the ANYWHERE innovation action. Before describing the details of the ANYWHERE ... -
Towards impact-based communication during climate emergencies: a community-based approach to improve flood early warning systems
(John Wiley & sons, 2024)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe shift towards impact-based early warning system (IB-EWS) services can be a promising cost-effective approach to increase the likelihood that recipients will understand their risk and take appropriate protective actions. ... -
The EUMETNET OPERA radar network: European-wide precipitation composites supporting rainfall-induced flash flood emergency management
(John Wiley & sons, 2024)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyPrecipitation is one of the essential climate variables, and its changes in frequency and magnitude over the past years in Europe had considerable impacts on our society. The EUMETNET project OPERA, established in 1999, ... -
Lagrangian-Hamiltonian formalism for cocontact systems
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2023)
Article
Open AccessIn this paper we present a unified Lagrangian–Hamiltonian geometric formalism to describe time-dependent contact mechanical systems, based on the one first introduced by K. Kamimura and later formalized by R. Skinner and ... -
A user experience evaluation of a mobile application for disseminating site-specific impact-based flood warnings: the A4alerts app
(John Wiley & sons, 2023-11-10)
Article
Open AccessPeople-centred early warning systems must ensure that their warnings are timely, actionable and get to the largest number of exposed individuals in the shortest time possible. Due to the increased access to high-bandwidth ... -
Sediment transport capacity in a gravel-bed river with a sandy tributary
(2023-11-30)
Article
Open AccessBedload transport in a river is a deeply analyzed problem, with many methodologies available in the literature. However, most of the existing methods were developed for reaches of rivers rather than for confluences and are ... -
Implementation of hydrometeorological thresholds for regional landslide warning in Catalonia (NE Spain)
(Springer, 2023-10)
Article
Open AccessSoil moisture plays a vital role in slope stability. As water infiltrates into the soil, shear strength decreases eventually leading to failure. However, most of the existing regional-scale landslide early warning systems ... -

Simulation of flash floods in ungauged basins using post-event surveys and numerical modelling
(John Wiley & sons, 2015-12-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe hydrological and hydraulic processes of the flash flood that affected Atrani village (Amalfi Coast of Southern Italy) on 9 September 2010 are analysed using post-flood surveys and numerical modelling. Observations in ... -
Massive incision and outcropping of bedrock in a former braided river attributed to mining and training
(2023-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis research analyses multiple anthropogenic pressures in the Bernesga River, a gravel-bed river in Northwestern Iberian Peninsula. Among the causes of river incision in Bernesga River are extensive mining during the ... -
The energy transfer from granular landslides to water bodies explained by a data-driven, physics-based numerical model
(2021-04)
Article
Open AccessTime trends and their statistical significance for daily minimum, Tmin, and maximum, Tmax, temperatures recorded at the Fabra Observatory (Barcelona) along 102 years (1917–2018) permit to analyse the evolution of every one ... -
Design and evaluation of a community and impact-based site-specific early warning system (SS-EWS): the SS-EWS framework
(2025-03)
Article
Open AccessThe recent extreme rainfall events in Spain such as the storm Gloria have highlighted the gaps in emergency communication, particularly the disconnect between the available impact-based early warning systems (IBEWSs) and ...
