The Influence of Rainfall and Catchment Critical Scales on Urban Hydrological Response Sensitivity

Interactions between spatial and temporal variability of rainfall and catchment characteristics strongly influence hydrological response. In urban areas, where runoff generation is fast due to high imperviousness degree, it is especially relevant to capture the high spatiotemporal rainfall variability. Significant progress has been made in...

Evaluating critical rainfall and catchment scale influence on hydrological response in urban areas

Rainfall spatial and temporal variability are key points in the prediction of hydrological response. At the same time, catchment scale and characteristics also play important roles, especially in urban areas, where the high level of imperviousness combined with intense and localised rainfall causes fast responses (Ochoa-Rodriguez et al., 2015)....
