Roux et al. (2011) A physically-based parsimonious hydrological model for flash floods in Mediterranean catchments
This study develops and validates MARINE, a physically-based, parsimonious, spatially distributed hydrological model for flash flood simulation in Mediterranean catchments. The model demonstrates good predictive capability, highlighting the importance of subsurface flow and the spatial variability of rainfall and soil properties for improved flash flood forecasting, especially in ungauged basins.

Hidalgo‐Muñoz et al. (2011) Trends of extreme precipitation and associated synoptic patterns over the southern Iberian Peninsula
This study analyzed extreme precipitation trends and associated synoptic patterns in the southern Iberian Peninsula (Andalusia) from 1955-2006, revealing significant spatial and seasonal variability with decreasing winter intensity trends in western/central areas and increasing trends in the southeast, linked to WeMO and NAO indices.
