Short-duration extreme rainfall events are the main trigger of flash and pluvial floods in
cities. Depending on the local climate zone and urban fabric that affect meteorological …

This work presents a methodology for analyzing the influence of urbanization in a long-term
approach on the number of floods in an urban catchment. The mathematical model …

Many design principles for rain gauges that have the capacity to record rainfall intensity
have been proposed or developed. These are here grouped into 15 categories, and the …

Characterized by their high spatiotemporal variability, rainfalls are difficult to predict,
especially under climate change. This study proposes a multilayer perceptron (MLP) …

Social media has been an instant source of information for natural disasters, such as urban
