Short-term rainfall was chosen because it is a major trigger for flooding in coastal urban areas such as Baubau City, where intense rainfall rapidly generates surface runoff and urban inundation. Rainfall provides an earlier and more direct signal of potential flooding compared to river levels or discharge, which typically respond with a temporal delay after a rainfall event. Furthermore, BMKG rainfall data is consistently available with high temporal continuity, making it suitable for short-term forecasting and early warning purposes. River levels and discharge are recognized as important complementary indicators and will be considered in future multi-source hydrological modeling.
