Modelling the rare but high-impact Mediterranean Heavy Precipitation Events (HPEs) at
climate scale remains a largely open scientific challenge. The issue is adressed here by …

This study examines the simulation of three torrential rain events observed on 13–14
October 1995 (the Cévennes case), 12–13 November 1999 (the Aude case) and 8–9 …

Cloud-Resolving Ensemble Simulations of Mediterranean Heavy Precipitating Events:
Uncertainty on Initial Conditions and Lateral Boundary Conditions in: Monthly Weather Review …

Abstract An original one-dimensional (1-D) retrieval followed by a three-dimensional
variational (1D+ 3DVar) assimilation technique is being developed to assimilate volumes of …

In the general context of field experiment design, this paper presents a modeling study that
quantifies the respective impact of rainfall estimation and soil variability on the simulated …

In Mediterranean Europe, flash flooding is one of the most devastating hazards in terms of
loss of human life and infrastructures. Over the last two decades, flash floods have caused …

This paper presents a detailed analysis of the September 8–9, 2002 flash flood event in the
Gard region (southern France) using two distributed hydrological models: CVN built within …

Mediterranean intense weather events often lead to devastating flash-floods. Extending the
forecasting lead times further than the watershed response times, implies the use of …

The flash flood guidance system (FFGS) is an operational system which assists forecasters
to issue flash flood warnings and watches over the conterminous United States. Currently, it …

We here inter-compare four different tracking algorithms by applying them onto the
precipitation fields of an ensemble of convection-permitting regional climate models …
