“…The flash flood of November 2019 was reconstructed using the rainfall‐runoff model of Soil Conservation Service‐Curve Number (SCS‐CN) (SCS 1972). SCS‐CN is a well‐known and widely applied hydrological model in many countries (Mitra, Wright, Abhisek, & Ghosh, 2015; Rezaei‐Sadr, 2017; Steenhuis, Winchell, Rossing, Zollweg, & Walters, 1995; Van Dijk, 2010; Verma, Verma, Mishra, Singh, & Jayaraj, 2017), as well as in Greece (Kaffas & Hrissanthou, 2014; Kastridis & Stathis, 2012; Kastridis & Stathis, 2020; Myronidis et al, 2009; Nalbantis & Lymperopoulos, 2012; Papaioannou et al, 2018; Soulis, 2018; Soulis, Ntoulas, Nektarios, & Kargas, 2017; Soulis, Valiantzas, Dercas, & Londra, 2009; Stathis, Sapountzis, & Myronidis, 2010; Yannopoulos, Eleftheriadou, Mpouri, & Giannopoulou, 2015). The CN is a dimensionless empirical parameter that estimates runoff and infiltration from rainfall excess, and ranges from 30 to 100, with the highest numbers to indicate high runoff potential.…”
