Erosion, flash floods and debris flows are hydro-geomorphic processes that intensify due to
catchment disturbance by wildland fire. Predictive models of these processes are used by …

Hailstorms are by far the costliest insured natural hazard in Australia. Major metropolitan
areas such as Sydney and Brisbane, located in mid-latitude coastal Eastern Australia, are …

A fixed ZR relationship approach, such as the Marshall-Palmer relationship, for an entire
year and for different seasons can be problematic in cases where the relationship varies …

The areal extent of rainfall remains one of the most challenging meteorological variables to
model accurately due to its high spatial and temporal variability. Weather radar is a remote …

Floods have become more frequent and intense, causing human fatalities and economic
losses worldwide. A robust rainfall estimation plays a pivotal role in flood forecasting and …

Rainfall erosivity impacts all stages of hillslope erosion processes and is an important factor
(the 'R factor') in the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation. It is estimated as the average …

This paper presents an operational approach to integrate a storm classification method into
a real-time radar rainfall estimation. A minor modification of a texturing classification …

Abstract The Bureau of Meteorology (Bureau) has a long history of providing effective flood
warnings to diverse communities in Australia, ranging from major metropolitan centers to …

Accurate estimation of faecal microorganism levels in water systems, such as stormwater
drains, creeks and rivers, is needed for appropriate assessment of impacts on receiving …

This paper demonstrates a procedure for deriving the Z–R relationship using poor temporal
resolution gauge rainfall data and evaluates its impact on runoff forecasting in the upper …
