**About the Special Issue Editors**

**Renato Morbidelli** has served as Associate Professor of Hydrology and Hydraulic Works at the University of Perugia in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering since 2002. He reached enablement for the national position of Full Professor of Hydrology and Hydraulic Works in 2016. He completed his PhD in 1998 at the University of Padua. From 1997 to 2002, he served at the University of Perugia as an Assistant Professor of Hydrology and Hydraulic Works. He has authored of numerous books and many papers published in prestigious international journals. The research activities of Morbidelli have been mainly focused on rainfall infiltration, the effects of spatial variability on soil hydraulic properties, and the use of simplified models for computing surface runoff and extreme rainfall analysis.

**Carla Saltalippi** completed her PhD at the University of Pavia in 1999. She is Associate Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the University of Perugia, Italy, where she teaches hydrology-related disciplines. She is the author of many papers in prestigious international journals and her main research interests focus on rainfall–runoff modeling, infiltration modeling, real-time flood forecasting, ground water, soil moisture, and extreme rainfall analysis.

**Alessia Flammini** has served as Researcher at the University of Perugia, in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering since 2006, and as Assistant Professor of Hydrology and Transport Processes in Fluids and Soil since 2009. In 2006, she completed her PhD at the University of Perugia in Civil Engineering and Curriculum in Engineering of Water. She is author of more than 30 papers published in the main international scientific journals with subject categories of Water Resources and Environmental Sciences (Journal of Hydrology, Hydrological Processes, Water Resources Research, Advances in Water Resources), 3 book chapters, and around 20 conference proceedings. The main topics of her research are (i) rainfall infiltration modeling at local and areal scales; (ii) representation of the spatial variability of soil hydraulic properties; (iii) rainfall–runoff modeling; and (iv) soil moisture trends in space and time.
