    Improving urban drainage modelling with path-average rainfall from telecommunication microwave links

  • Original language description

    Incomplete knowledge about spatio-temporal rainfall dynamics causes input uncertainty in rainfall-runoff modelling. This is especially critical in urban areas, where subcatchments are small and runoff is generated extremely fast on the impervious areas.Networks of telecommunication microwave links (MWL) are very dense in urban areas and therefore could provide novel rainfall information which has the potential to reduce input uncertainty in urban drainage modelling. In this study, we therefore investigate how the better information on spatio-temporal rainfall variability from MWL observations improves pipe flow predictions. Specifically, we perform numerical experiments with virtual rainfall fields and compare the results of MWL rainfall reconstructions to those of rain gauge observations. For a case study of a suburb in Prague, Czech Republic, we are able to show that MWL networks in urban areas are sufficiently dense to provide good information on spatio-temporal rainfall variabilit
