Australian Rainfall and Runoff (ARR) is the national guideline for flood estimation.Last updated in 1987 the guideline is currently undergoing a major update.
Natural Flood Management (NFM) is increasingly adopted as a crucial element within UK sustainable flood management.This utilises a non-structural multi-benefit approach, whereby the landscapes natural
Time Variant Gain Model (TVGM) describing the nonlinear relationship between rainfall and runoff is widely used in flood forecasting, which plays a significant role in non-structural measurement of fl
In order to complete dam-break flood hazard assessment rapidly, a useful tool is presented by integrating one-dimensional dam-break flood simulation model and GIS technology.
In 1988, stakeholders in the Soap Creek Watershed, a rural 660-km2 basin located in southeast Iowa, USA, established a plan to construct 154 small reservoirs to reduce recurring flood damages to agric
The 1987 edition of Australian Rainfall and Runoff (national guidelines on flood estimation, Pilgrim, 1987) provided very little guidance on the use of two-dimensional models for the prediction of des
In order to declare new lands for urbanization in the Valle del Cauca Department at the west of Colombia, a study was carried on for several municipalities.
Flood hazard maps (flood maps) are critical to evaluate flood risk and develop mitigation measures.However, the methods applied, attributes and quality of current flood maps vary significantly from re
