Applicability of a forecasting chain in a different morphological environment in Italy

摘要

The operational meteo-hydrological forecasting chain of the Liguria Region(NW Italy) is applied to a different morphoclimatic environment, such as theEmilia Romagna Region (N Italy). Modification to the chain, both in modelsand in procedures, are introduced to overcome problems related to mediumdimension catchments (A≈1000km2), characterized by complexaltimetry profiles and antropical interventions along the river. The mainfeature of the original operational procedure, that is the probabilisticapproach, is maintained. Hydraulic hazard reduction through artificialreservoirs management is exploited with reference to a specific eventoccurred on the Reno basin (Emilia Romagna Region).
