Filling the gaps: Calibrating a rainfall-runoff model using satellite-derived surface water extent

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used remotely-sensed surface water extent from the Global Flood Detection System (GFDS) as a proxy for streamflow, and tested its value for calibration of the distributed rainfall-runoff routing model LISFLOOD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ensemble flood forecasting in Africa: a feasibility study in the Juba–Shabelle river basin†

TL;DR: In this article, the transferability of the EFAS-methodologies to equatorial African basins is assessed with the analysis of the Juba-Shabelle river basin as an example using a variety of different meteorological data sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

A dynamic runoff co-efficient to improve flash flood early warning in Europe: evaluation on the 2013 central European floods in Germany

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an enhanced version of the European Precipitation Index based on Climatology (EPIC) through a dynamic and distributed runoff co-efficient which depends on the initial soil moisture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the satellite-based Global Flood Detection System for measuring river discharge: influence of local factors

TL;DR: In this paper, the potentials and constraints of the remote sensing signal of the Global Flood Detection System for converting the flood detection signal into river discharge values were tested for 322 river measurement locations in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America.
