- Right answer
- Laboratory or field measurements · Testa (2007)
- Results
- No model run yet · see them ↓
- Must
- match the gauge records
What happens
A scale model of the Toce valley with an urban district, flooded by a measured inflow.
Why it matters
Tests urban flooding against laboratory measurements.
A good model must
- match the gauge records
- place the flood front within 10 cm
