- A process-informed framework linking temperature-rainfall projections and urban flood modeling (2026) · Hydrology and earth system sciences · doi
The scarcity of high-resolution rainfall projections, particularly at the sub-daily and kilometer scales required for hydrodynamic modeling. The need for a framework that can quantify changes in future urban flood statistics with detailed hazard maps. The lack of a process-informed approach that links temperature-rainfall projections and urban flood modeling.

The method has limitations, including the simplified modelling of rainfall–flood relationships and the omission of potential future changes to floodplains. The absolute values of Expected Annual Damage should be interpreted with caution due to modelling caveats. No bias correction is applied to the rainfall data used in this analysis.

Future studies should investigate the impact of other factors on flood simulation accuracy, such as vegetation and soil type. Future studies should apply the study's methodology to other urban areas to improve flood prediction and mitigation. Future studies should explore the use of other DEM resolutions and infiltration rates to optimize computational resources for flood simulation.
