The aim of this book is to contribute to understanding risk knowledge and to forecasting components of early flood warning, particularly in the environment of tropical high mountains in developing cities. The research follows the modelling steps for flood forecasting development, addressing: flood hazard with emphasis on identifying debris flow predisposition; vulnerability to flash floods/debris flows; risk analysis; input precipitation; and hydrological modelling, focussing on the identification the most appropriate model for the study area for flood early warning and the added value of…mehr

The aim of this book is to contribute to understanding risk knowledge and to forecasting components of early flood warning, particularly in the environment of tropical high mountains in developing cities. The research follows the modelling steps for flood forecasting development, addressing: flood hazard with emphasis on identifying debris flow predisposition; vulnerability to flash floods/debris flows; risk analysis; input precipitation; and hydrological modelling, focussing on the identification the most appropriate model for the study area for flood early warning and the added value of numerical weather models for early flood warning in a páramo area.
