Weather Radar and Hydrology 2011 provided a forum for the exchange of experiences and ideas on the use of weather radar in hydrology with a particular emphasis on user applications for flood forecasting and water management. The full set of papers from the symposium, held at the University of Exeter in April 2011, are available through the International Association of Hydrological Sciences.
The proceedings serve as a valuable record of this activity and cover a comprehensive set of papers on weather radar theory, technology and systems; rainfall estimation and quality control; rainfall forecasting (nowcasting and numerical weather prediction); uncertainty estimation; hydrological impact and design studies; hydrological modelling and flood forecasting; and urban hydrology and water management applications.
