Estimation of Historical-Annual and Historical-Monthly Scale-Invariant Flow Duration Curves with Implementation for Iowa
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a procedure to derive historical-annual and historical-monthly flow duration curves (FDC) that are monotonic and continuous for agricultural, unregulated, ungauged sites. The authors explore the performance ...
An Initial Assessment of Radar Data Assimilation on Warm Season Rainfall Forecasts for Use in Hydrologic Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he effect of introducing radar data assimilation into the WRF Model to improve high-resolution rainfall forecasts that are used for flash flood forecasting is analyzed. The authors selected 12 heavy rainfall events and ...
A Spatial–Dynamical Framework for Evaluation of Satellite Rainfall Products for Flood Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ainfall maps that are derived from satellite observations provide hydrologists with an unprecedented opportunity to forecast floods globally. However, the limitations of using these precipitation estimates with respect to ...
Real-Time Flood Forecasting and Information System for the State of Iowa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Iowa Flood Center (IFC), established following the 2008 record floods, has developed a real-time flood forecasting and information dissemination system for use by all Iowans. The system complements the operational ...
