TL;DR: The Advanced Scatterometer (ASCAT) is a C-band active microwave remote sensing instrument flown on board of the Meteorological Operational (METOP) satellite series as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The June 2013 flood in the Upper Danube Basin, and comparisons with the 2002, 1954 and 1899 floods
TL;DR: The June 2013 flood in the Upper Danube Basin was one of the largest floods in the past two centuries as mentioned in this paper, which resulted in extreme flood discharges in a number of tributaries including the Tiroler Ache, Saalach, Salzach and Inn.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil moisture updating by Ensemble Kalman Filtering in real-time flood forecasting
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the benefits of updating soil moisture of a distributed rainfall runoff model in forecasting large floods, and showed that the updating procedure indeed improves the forecasts substantially.
Journal ArticleDOI
A spatially distributed flash flood forecasting model
TL;DR: A distributed model that is in operational use for forecasting flash floods in northern Austria and includes ensemble Kalman Filtering is used to update the model states (grid soil moisture) based on observed runoff.
Journal ArticleDOI
