Flood mapping requires the combination and integration of geomorphological and hydrological-hydraulic methods; however, despite this, there is very little scientific literature that compares and validates both methods. Two types of analysis are addressed in the present article. On the one hand,...

Risk, including flood risk, can be defined as ‘the combination of the probability of an event and its consequences’. Assessing and managing the risk from flooding should explicitly include the estimation of impacts to people. Extensive research is currently ongoing looking at both...

<Para ID="Par1">A physical model that consisted of a glass reinforced plastic model, constructed to a 1:25,000 horizontal scale and with a 1:125 vertical scale of the Severn estuary was designed and fitted into a tidal basin at Cardiff University. The model, which was first of its kind, was used to conduct...</para>

An integrated hydrologic/hydraulic model of the Kemptville Creek basin has been built using the Mike11 modeling system of the Danish Hydraulic Institute and available GIS-based watershed data. This watershed system is complex, comprising of channels, local drainage areas, lateral inflows,...

Urban sustainability has been one of the most important issues in the last decades. The modification of watercourses and their integration to power production facilities have resulted in severe environmental impacts around the globe. This study presents a sustainability analysis to examine the...

Предложена модель, в основу которой положена ресурсная сеть со структурой в виде регулярной двумерной решетки. Вершинам поставлено в соответствие количество...

Since the late 1970s, the Pearl River Delta (PRD) in China has undergone a rapid transition from an agricultural landscape to a metropolitan area. The rapid urbanization has not only increased the area of impervious surfaces in the central plain; it has displaced farmland to the hilly peripheral...

This study is aimed to use the available limited meteorologicaland hydrological data for two catchments located in the westernIraqi desert, to develop and apply a simple single event watershed model to simulate and predict the surface runoff hydrograph. The single event watershed model is based...

Practice experience suggests that the traditional calibration of hydrological models with single objective cannot properly measure all of the behaviors of the hydrological system. To circumvent this problem, in recent years, a lot of studies have looked into calibration of hydrological models...
