Abstract
This chapter discusses various approaches for stochastic rainfall synthesis focusing on methods for generation of short time step precipitation as required for flood studies. A brief introduction motivates the utilisation of rainfall generators for flood modelling. Then special characteristics of rainfall as stochastic process are discussed. The rainfall models presented in the following are classified in alternating renewal models, time series models, point process models, disaggregation and resampling approaches. They are usually applied for continuous unconditional simulation of rainfall series in time and/or in space. Two case studies at the end of the chapter illustrate the application of daily and hourly space-time precipitation models for flood studies.
