Zusammenfassung |
The prediction of the small-scale spatial-temporal pattern of
intense rainfall events is crucial for flood risk assessment in
small catchments and urban areas. In the absence of a full
deterministic modelling of small-scale rainfall, it is common
practice to resort to the use of stochastic downscaling models to
generate ensemble rainfall predictions to be used as inputs to
rainfall-runoff models. In this work we present an application of a
new spatial-temporal downscaling procedure, called RainFARM, to an
intense precipitation event predicted by the limited-area
meteorological model Lokal Model over north-west Italy. The
uncertainty in flood prediction associated with the small unresolved
scales of forecasted precipitation fields is evaluated by using an
ensemble of downscaled fields to drive a semi-distributed
rainfall-runoff model. |
