Short summary
Runoff thresholds for activating flood warnings might be estimated with regionally derived relationships between catchment descriptors and assigned flood quantiles. Since the consequences of overestimated thresholds (leading to missing alarms) are generally more severe than those of an underestimation (leading to false alarms), the work proposes to parameterise the regression model with an asymmetric error function, instead of using a traditional, symmetric square errors sum.
Runoff thresholds for activating flood warnings might be estimated with regionally derived...
