Van Emmerik, T.H.M. (author)This thesis presents the results of a research done on the agricultural situation of Kilole. Kilole is a small Kenyan village located between Mombasa and the Tanzanian border. Looking at the annual rainfall, it can not be said that there is a lack of it in Kilole. However, because of its poor distribution the year is diverted in two rain seasons...bachelor thesis 2011

Nagy, L. (author), Kádár, I. (author)Shocking media images are broadcast daily about various acts of violence, natural and technological (man-made) “disasters”. Television may present a single fallen tree as the outcome of large-scale storm damage. The capacity to compare the losses incurred by threats and disasters would help us clarify the comparison of common events. However,...conference paper 2015

De Kleermaeker, S. (author), Verkade, J.S. (author)Often, water management decisions are based on hydrological forecasts, which are affected by inherent uncertainties. It is increasingly common for forecasters to make explicit estimates of these uncertainties. Associated benefits include the decision makers’ increased awareness of forecasting uncertainties and the potential for risk-based...conference paper 2013

Shafiei, M. (author), Gharari, S. (author), Pande, S. (author), Bhulai, S. (author)Posterior sampling methods are increasingly being used to describe parameter and model predictive uncertainty in hydrologic modelling. This paper proposes an alternative to random walk chains (such as DREAM-zs). We propose a sampler based on independence chains with an embedded feature of standardized importance weights based on Kernel density...conference paper 2014

Ten Veldhuis, J.A.E. (author), Skovgard Olsen, A. (author)Hydrological response times are often used to characterise runoff processes. They provide information about temporal resolution of catchments responses, thus of the required measurement resolutions of in-situ sensors as well as spatial sensors like rainfall radars. The objective of this study was to characterise response times for urban...conference paper 2012

(author)Precipitation and catchment information needs to be available at high resolution to reliably predict hydrological response and potential flooding in urban catchments. While recent advances have been made in weather radar technology and availability of DTM for urban flood modelling, the question is whether these are sufficient to provide reliable...conference paper 2014

(author), Schertzer, D. (author), Willems, P. (author)In this study high resolution precipitation data are used, derived from polarimetric X-band radar at 100 m, 1 min resolution. The data are used to study the impact of different space-time resolutions of rainfall input on urban hydrodynamic modelling response for 9 storms, in 7 urban catchments. The results show that hydrodynamic response...conference paper 2015

Pande, S. (author), Arkesteijn, L. (author), Bastidas, L.A. (author)This paper uses a recently proposed measure of hydrological model complexity in a model selection exercise. It demonstrates that a robust hydrological model is selected by penalizing model complexity while maximizing a model performance measure. This especially holds when limited data is available. Here by a robust model, we mean a model that...conference paper 2014

Kayastha, N. (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author), Lal Shrestha, D. (author)In the MLUE method (reported in Shrestha et al. [1, 2]) we run a hydrological model M for multiple realizations of parameters vectors (Monte Carlo simulations), and use this data to build a machine learning model V to predict uncertainty (quantiles) of the model M output. In this paper, for model V, we employ three machine learning techniques,...conference paper 2014

Liu, H. (author)Digital elevation models (DEM) are widely used in various distributed hydrological models. The stream network can be extracted from it so that runoff routing can be calculated. With the advent of remote sensing and computing technologies, the computation based on DEM with high resolution becomes possible. However, there still exist regions with...conference paper 2018

Thorndahl, Søren (author), Murla-Tuyls, Damian (author), Nielsen, Rasmus Vest (author), Schleiss, M.A. (author), Olsson, Jonas (author)For pluvial flood risk assessment in urban areas it is important to be able to calculate how often a specific area is at risk of flooding. This is especially evident in urban areas subject to contribution from multiple sources, e.g. surcharging drainage system, surface runoff, overflowing rivers, etc. In this study extreme event statistics are...conference paper 2019

Verkade, J.S. (author)Flood early warning systems provide a potentially highly effective flood risk reduction measure. The effectiveness of early warning, however, is affected by forecasting uncertainty: the impossibility of knowing, in advance, the exact future state of hydrological systems. Early warning systems benefit from estimation of predictive uncertainties,...doctoral thesis 2015
