Towards a large-scale locally relevant flood inundation modeling framework using SWAT and LISFLOOD-FP
Lack of geospecificity or local relevance is a major limitation in contemporary large-scale
flood modeling frameworks. There is a little practical value for configuring a large-scale …

Compounding factors for extreme flooding around Galveston Bay during Hurricane Harvey
Coastal hazard is rarely driven by only one source, as exemplified by the compound
flooding from Hurricane Harvey in Galveston Bay in 2017. A 3D creek-to-ocean model is …

Breaking down the computational barriers to real‐time urban flood forecasting
Flooding impacts are on the rise globally, and concentrated in urban areas. Currently, there
are no operational systems to forecast flooding at spatial resolutions that can facilitate …
