The use of radar-rainfall inputs for quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) in Klang River Basin / Suzana Ramli
Flooding is a natural disaster that often occurs in Malaysia due to its heavy rainfall distribution. Lately, the exceptional amount of rainfall worsens the flood situation. Many incidents of floods attributed to the extreme downpour caused massive problems. The capability of gauge to receive data of...
