Convection-permitting regional climate simulations for representing floods in small- and medium-sized catchments in the Eastern Alps
... Abstract. Small-scale floods are a consequence of high pre- cipitation rates in small areas that can occur along frontal activity and convective storms. This situation is expected to become more severe due to a warming ...
