| Abstract | A hydrological modelling approach based on the distributed rainfall-runoff model Wetspa Extension (Wang, 1996) and automatic surface detection is described. This approach was aimed at refining determination of runoff hydrographs at critical locations in the network of small watercourses flowing through Zurich, Switzerland. Many of these watercourses are partially culverted, creating flood risk, but until now they had only been studied using spatially lumped models. The process is illustrated here using the Holderbach catchment, which has a high flood risk, combining a fast runoff response with a high proportion of built-up areas, and occasionally areas with a steep slope, such as deep valleys (Scherrer, 2007). |
