Abstract

In this work we have evaluated NWP ALADIN quantitative precipitation forecast (QPF) for selected headwater areas of the Czech part of the Elbe river basin. Different applied statistical methods (f.e. double mass curve, CDF, frequency diagram, discrimination and reliability) are introduced.

Simple quantile transformation resulted in improvement of forecast of total long term volume of precipitation in most of the study basins.
