Reservoir effects on flood peak discharge at the catchment scale
This paper proposes a method to easily quantify the attenuation due to a reservoir on
downstream flood peak discharges, that is, to the downstream flood frequency curve. Using …

Quantifying the relative impact of hydrological and hydraulic modelling parameterizations on uncertainty of inundation maps
Flood risk management strongly relies on inundation models for river basin zoning in flood-
prone and risk-free areas. Floodplain zoning is significantly affected by the diverse and …

Can continuous streamflow data support flood frequency analysis? An alternative to the partial duration series approach
Common procedures for flood frequency modeling are based on analysis of series of annual
maxima (AMS) of the instantaneous discharge. A practical alternative to AMS series is …

A new physically based index to quantify the impact of multiple reservoirs on flood frequency at the catchment scale based on the concept of equivalent reservoir
The presence of multiple reservoirs in a catchment generally induces the attenuation of flood
events, thus mitigating their impact in downstream flood‐prone areas. Such mitigation …
