Abstract:
The atmospheric river event causing the 2017 Oroville Dam spillways incident was more exceptional for runoff than precipitation totals High rain‐snow elevations, deep antecedent snowpack, and unprecedented snowmelt are shown to explain the discrepancy We highlight the importance of considering snowmelt, rain‐snow elevations, and climate change in assessing current and future flood risk
