TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of rainfall input resolution on the outputs of detailed hydrodynamic models of seven urban catchments in North-West Europe, and identified critical rainfall resolutions to accurately characterize catchment response to nine storm events measured by a dual-polarimetric X-band weather radar.

TL;DR: A review of the current understanding of hydrological processes in urban environments as reported in the literature, focusing on their spatial and temporal variability aspects is presented in this paper, where the authors identify gaps where knowledge needs to be further developed to improve the understanding of and capability to predict urban hydrologogical response.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the state of the art in radar rainfall data and applications is presented, focusing on three key areas with significant advances over the past decade: (1) temporal and spatial resolution of rainfall data required for different types of hydrological applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined urban flood response through data-driven analyses for a diverse sample of watersheds (basin scale ranging from 7.0 to 111.1 km2) in the Charlotte metropolitan region.

TL;DR: The main findings of this paper enable a replacement of traditional methods of “model calibration” by innovative methods of "model resolution alteration” based on the spatial data variability and scaling of flows in urban hydrology.
