报告题目:Modeling the link between local extreme rainfall/flood events and large-scale atmospheric circulation features and impact assessment.
主讲人:Prof. Francesco Cioffi (University of Rome ‘ La Sapienza’ )

摘要:
       A number of studies have emphasized the importance of using large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns and global climate mechanisms to constrain future projections of hydrological extremes. In this context, NHMM approaches, to link heavy precipitation/high flood events to atmospheric circulation states in different mid-latitude regions, are discussed. Then a methodology is presented which is based on the development of a stacking downscaling model. Such model - in order to simulate daily rainfall amount and occurrence conditional on such atmospheric predictors- integrates a number of sub-models as Non-Homogeneous Hidden Markov Model (NHMM), random forest model and Xgboosting. The performance of the two approaches are demonstrated. Moreover, a methodology to assess the impact in a real world study cases of future hydrogical extreme changes, is proposed.

报告人简介:
       Prof. Francesco Cioffi is from Hydraulics and Environmental Hydraulics, Department of Civil Structural and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering University di Rome ‘ La Sapienza’. His areas of expertise are experimental hydraulics, environmental hydraulics, applied hydrology and climatology. He has collaborated on numerous projects funded by Italian and Foreign Institutions. He won a research prize (Philips Morris research prize 1990) and fellowships (Italian Academy Fellowship, Columbia University, New York for the research: “Flood and drought from decade to century”, Fall 2010; Daad fellowship, GZF Potsdam, Germany, ‘From global to local in times of climate change : exploring the link flood/climate by looking at the underlying common climatic (spatio-temporal) structure in extreme floods in Europe and USA’, 2015. He also was Visiting Professor at the Earth and Environmental Engineering Department of Columbia University New York, in the falls 2011-2013 and Instructor of the course ' River and Coastal Hydrodynamics ' at the Earth and Environmental Department of Columbia University New-York in the Academic years 2011,2012,2013 and currently Adjunct Research Scientist at Columbia University (NY).

报告题目:Complex Network applications to link circulation patterns and hydrological extremes
主讲人:Dr. Federico Conticello(University of Rome ‘ La Sapienza’ )

报告人简介:
       Dr. Federico Conticello is graduated from University of Rome "La Sapienza". His researches focus on climate changes and their effects on hydrological extremes, I.e. floods and droughts, using methodologies such as: complex networks, markovian processes, neural networks, deep learning and ensemble models. He collaborated to research projects financed by public and private sectors in Italy, Europe and US. Such projects covered: optimization of water resource management, disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation.
