Table 4.
List of the models evaluated during the testing step. Each model was defined as a combination of defined thresholds of hourly air temperature, and rainfall and relative humidity over uninterrupted hours.
| Model | Hourly Rainfall (R) | Hourly Relative Humidity (RH) | Hourly Temperature (T; °C) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nighttime | Daytime | |||
| M1 | R ≥ 0.1 mm during the 4 preceding hours | RH > 90% during the first 4 h, then >60% during the following 9 h | T > 10 | T > 16 |
| M2 | T > 15 | T > 16 | ||
| M3 | T > 18 | T > 16 | ||
| M4 | R ≥ 0.1 mm during the 4 preceding hours | RH > 95% during the first 4 h, then >60% during the following 9 h | T > 10 | T > 16 |
| M5 | T > 15 | T > 16 | ||
| M6 | T > 18 | T > 16 | ||
| M7 | R ≥ 0.1 mm during the 4 preceding hours | RH > 90% during the first 4 h, then >60% during the following 9 h | T > 10 | T > 20 |
| M8 | T > 15 | T > 20 | ||
| M9 | T > 18 | T > 20 | ||
| M10 | R ≥ 0.1 mm during the 4 preceding hours | RH > 95% during the first 4 h, then >60% during the following 9 h | T > 10 | T > 20 |
| M11 | T > 15 | T > 20 | ||
| M12 | T > 18 | T > 20 | ||
| M13 | No specific rainfall condition required | RH > 95% during the first 4 h, then >60% during the following 9 h | 10< T < 12 | T > 16 |
| M14 | 10< T < 12 | T > 20 | ||
