In the case of the present study, owing to the variability in the propagation times, it was decided to calibrate several linear relationships of the increased flow rate type between three stations: five linear relationships were selected to best represent the 15 calibrated floods since 1990. These five linear relationships have been grouped together in a multi-model procedure. e. three hours at Bize Minervois. This time period was extended to five hours by combining the multi-model procedure with a GR3H-type rain flow model upwind on the Bize Minervois station (forecast timeframe of two hours).

M. at Vogüe, but measuring 150 m3/s. 4. Conclusion This example has demonstrated that the unprocessed weather forecasts, assessed by Météo-France forecasters, proved fairly reliable and enabled the SCHAPI-SPC network to draw up flood alert maps that were realistic with respect to the phenomena that actually occurred. This was a low-intensity event, but given that it occurred during the Summer, it was very much worth placing under yellow alert in order to raise the public awareness of the risks of a rapid increase in the low-water channel flow-rate of the watercourses concerned.
