N1) DEFRA Extreme Rainfall & Floods
Deadline: 5pm 28 May 2003
The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs invites expressions
of interest to undertake a second phase of work on extreme rainfall and
flood event recognition. Research should concentrate on the following

categorisation and the archetype conceptual model if they are frontal;
* development area one: Met Office mesoscale model NWP outputs can be
used to help establish a prototype 24hour early warning system to be tested
on independent data, which should include non-extreme as well as extreme
events;
* follow-up research: the project should investigate the recent work
at the University of Salford on a new method of identifying extreme
convective events based on an analysis of vorticity, using MM NWP, and, if
possible Doppler radar data;
* development work area two: the training data set given in the phase
one report should be combined with radar data from an extreme event to
develop a gridded data base for use in hydrological and flood forecasting
model development;
* development work area three: the development of a scoring system for
river catchments developed during phase one of the project to provide an
indication of the extreme flood potential.
The project should last two years.
