Benefits and limitations of data assimilation for discharge forecasting using an event-based rainfall–runoff model
Mediterranean catchments in southern France are threatened by potentially devastating fast floods which are difficult to anticipate. In order to improve the skill of rainfall-runoff models in predicting such flash floods, hydrologists use data assimilation techniques to provide real-time updates of...
