Surface water quality is frequently impacted by acute rainfall driven pollutant sources such as sewer overflows. Understanding the risk of exposure from faecal pollution from short term impacts is challenging due to a paucity of high-resolution data from river systems. This paper proposes practical modelling approach for forecasting arrival time and durations of elevated E.

- This paper explores uncertainties in integrated catchment models based on the QUICS project, discussing current knowledge and frameworks for analyzing these uncertainties.
- It compares building and calibrating fully integrated models versus linking separate sub-models, examining how model linkage affects overall uncertainty and model complexity.
- The paper also addresses whether linking models increases uncertainty or potentially reduces it, while highlighting challenges faced in uncertainty analysis and suggesting areas for future research.
Urban drainage systems are frequently analysed using hydraulic modelling software packages such as InfoWorks CS or MIKE-Urban. The use of such modelling tools allows the evaluation of sewer capacity and the likelihood and impact of pluvial flood events. Models can also be used to plan major investments such as increasing storage capacity or the implementation of sustainable urban drainage systems.
