In Canada, risk of flooding due to heavy rainfall has risen in recent decades; the most
notable recent examples include the July 2013 storm in the Greater Toronto region and the …

This paper describes an integrated, high-resolution dataset of hydro-meteorological
variables (rainfall and discharge) concerning a number of high-intensity flash floods that …

Sediments seriously increase flood risk. The lack of sediment data, as well as uncertainty in
sediment yield and transport modeling, hampers the incorporation of sediment into flood risk …

The hydrological response of a catchment to heavy rainfall is determined by many
environmental and climatic variables, including the catchment size, shape and morphology …

This work aims to evaluate the potential benefits and limitations of radar rainfall estimates for
the identification of debris flow occurrence rainfall thresholds. Observations from a C-band …

The concurrence of flash floods and debris flows is of particular concern, because it may
amplify the hazard corresponding to the individual generative processes. This paper …

Physically based distributed hydrological models aim at an adequate representation of
hydrological processes, including runoff generation. A significant proportion of runoff is …

Full process description and distributed hydrological models are very useful tools in
hydrology as they can be applied in different contexts and for a wide range of aims such as …

The reconstruction of past flash floods in ungauged basins leads to a high level of
uncertainty, which increases if other processes are involved such as the transport of large …

Surface water floods (SWFs) have received increasing attention in the recent years.
Nevertheless, we still know relatively little about where, when and why such floods occur …
