Quantitative Flood Estimation (QFE) in complex terrain remains a grand challenge in operational hydrology due to the lack of accurate high-resolution Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE) at spatial and temporal resolutions needed to capture the variability of orographic precipitation, and where radar-based QPE are available there are significant biases due to the geometry and constraints of radar operations. Here, we present a high-resolution (i.e. 250m, 5minute-hourly) QPE dataset for the most extreme (flood-producing) events from 2008 to 2024 for 26 gauged basins (in total 215 events) in the Appalachian mountains constrained to meet basin-scale water budget closure through inverse rainfall-runoff modeling to correct the Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) Stage IV analysis (4km resolution, hourly) using a fully-distributed uncalibrated hydrological model that leverages recent advances in hydrologic modeling in mountainous regions (e.g. improved river routing and initial soil moisture estimation) (Liao and Barros, 2024a and 2024b). The corrected Stage IV analysis is referred to as StageIV-IRC (Inverse Rainfall Correction). Previously, a subset of this dataset informed the construction of a generalized QPE error model (Liao and Barros, 2023), supporting the development of water budget closure constrained QPE and providing physics insights into orographic QPE uncertainties for various radar-based products at high resolution in complex terrain. The unique advantage of the StageIV-IRC QPE is that it achieves water budget closure at the storm-flood event scale within observational uncertainty of streamflow observations, that is the golden standard in hydrological modeling.
