| Résumé : | Understanding rainfall processes and their distribution in time and space, as well as their fluctuations is crucial to most hydrological analyses, thereby including hydrology of urban areas characterised by a high sensitivity to intense rainfall events. Recent improvements in monitoring techniques and data collection, such as the development and the use of weather radars have improved the capabilities of the design of urban drainage systems, also allowing their real-time management during major storm events. Morever, the development of analysis and modelling tools opened new frontiers towards the understanding of precipitation processes, also generating significant benefit for operational urban hydrology. |
