In this study, we have developed a flood forecasting system prototype and checked its potential for carrying out operational flood forecasting in the state of Nebraska. This system builds upon some of the core components of the Iowa Flood Information System (IFIS), which is a state-of-the-art platform widely recognized around the world. We implemented our platform on a pilot basin in Nebraska (Elkhorn River basin) by installing eight stream sensors and setting up the hydrologic model component of IFIS, i.e., the Hillslope Link Model (HLM). Due to their importance in the Midwest, we particularly emphasized the snow processes and developed an improved HLM model that can account for different aspects of snow (rain-snow-partitioning, snowmelt, and snow accumulation) through simple parameterizations. Results show that the more thorough treatment of snow processes in the hydrologic model, as proposed herein, leads to better flood peak simulations. In this paper, we discuss different steps involved in developing the flood forecasting system prototype, along with the associated challenges and opportunities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":310,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Modelling & Software","volume":"164 ","pages":"Article 105693"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"3445830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BasinMaker functionality is demonstrated to build two high-resolution vector-based lake-river routing products each defining a collection of routing networks across large regions: the North American Lake-River Routing and Ontario Lake-River Routing Products.
