CHROME is the acronym of "Couplage Hydrométéorologique RégiOnal Multi-Ensembles". This project started in 2011 and joins the expertises of hydrologists from French National Service for Flood Forecasting (SCHAPI) and of meteorologists from meteorological Service (METEO FRANCE).CHROME project aims at bulding a multi-ensemble  hydro-meteorological discharge forecasting chain on french Mediterranean catchments. Multi-ensemble means that both uncertainties on hydrological model structure and on rainfall forecast are considered. The mediterranean meteorological specificity -high and very space-variable rainfall intensity- is taken into account by using high resolution non-hydrostatic AROME NWP model outputs and four distributed rainfall/runoff model.
The different steps of this project are :
]]></description><item> assessing the weights of uncertainties in the different components of an multi-ensemble hydrometeorologic chain;
</item><item> evaluating the reliability and the sharpness of the forectased hydrographs thanks to hindcasts on past events;
</item><item> building, testing and improving a real-time coupled hydrometeorological chain;
</item><item> building user-friendly vizualisations of the chain outputs.
