The severity of those floods has caused 20 fatalities and important damage in almost 50 municipalities in the French administrative area of Alpes-Maritimes. The local recording rain gauges have...
Since 2006, Meteo-France has developed an efficient vigilance system for floods throughout France. Yet, 20000 km out of the 120000 km of the French hydrographic network benefit from this monitoring so far.

Cette méthodologie associe un simulateur de pluie horaire et un modèle simple de transformation de la pluie en débit. Les résultats...
