Abstract
This HydroLearn module examines how extreme rainfall events lead to runoff and streamflow within a watershed, using Hurricane Helene as a case study. Predicting floods requires an understanding of how rainfall is distributed between infiltration into the soil and surface runoff. This module focuses on the key hydrological processes that control this partitioning, particularly the role of soil properties, infiltration capacity, and antecedent moisture conditions. Learners will explore how these factors influence the movement of water through and across the landscape during intense storms. Using Hurricane Helene as an example, learners will analyze how extreme precipitation can produce high runoff and increase flood risk within a watershed.
