Publisher's Synopsis
Measurement techniques and treatment of rainfall data have been profoundly modified by the use of rainfall-runoff simulation programmes that use digital rainfall series instead of statistical rainfall data. The shift of focus towards environmental protection requires detailed simulation of complex systems based on accurate rainfall series with a sufficient temporal and spatial resolution. These proceedings summarise the experience of different countries and compare the approaches currently being used to provide an authoritative survey of the state of the art in this branch of urban hydrology.
