A comparison of SAC‐SMA and Adaptive Neuro‐fuzzy Inference System for real‐time flood forecasting in small urban catchments

Growing urbanisation and imperviousness have augmented magnitudes of peak flows, resulting in flooding especially during extreme events. Flood forecast of extreme events can rely on real‐time ensemble flood forecasting systems. Such systems often use predictions from physical models and precipitation ensembles to predict downstream urban flood hydrographs. However, these methods are seldom used in small catchments, where flood predictions may...
