نویسندگان
چکیده
The development of early warning systems (EWSs) is a key element for the effective mitigation flash flood impacts. Emergency managers and other end-users increasingly recognise benefit tools that automatically translate forecasted hazard (e.g. expressed in terms peak discharge or return period) into expected socio-economic impacts affected population). While previous studies aimed at forecasting local regional scales, this paper presents simple approach estimating real time pan-European scale. proposed method – named ReAFFINE designed to be integrated an EWS operating over large spatial domains across regions countries). uses estimates from ERICHA system retrieve potentially flooded areas national maps (generated framework EU Floods Directive). By combining with exposure information, exposed population critical infrastructures. For two catastrophic events affecting Europe recent years, has demonstrated capability identify scales. Also sub-regional level, mostly been able locate municipalities where most important occurred. results also show performance sensitive quality rainfall drive estimation, comprehensiveness employed maps.
