- One of the challenges we face in environmental or ecological impact studies is to provide fast and realistic simulations of fine-scale rainfall, as the sub-hourly rainfall sequence is one of the key inputs into hydrological models that are used to understand and manage environmental and ecological systems. The proposed stochastic model provides environmentalists with a useful tool to help quantify uncertainty and assess risk in ecological or hydrological systems associated with water supply and climate variability. The extension of this modelling framework led to collaboration, and publication, with researchers at Imperial College London to incorporate exponentially decaying rainfall pulses.
