A rising exposure to flood risk is a predicted consequence of increased development in
vulnerable areas and an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events due to climate …

This paper aims to evaluate how varying degrees of land-use/cover (LULC) changes across
sub-catchments affect a flood peak at the catchment outlet. The study site was the Konar …

Basin morphometric parameters play an important role in hydrological processes, as they
largely control a catchment's hydrologic response. Their analysis becomes even more …

This report presents the results of Phase 1 of Project SC090031 'Estimating flood peaks and
hydrographs for small catchments'. This work was jointly funded by the Environment Agency …

The changes to catchment scale flood risk following river restoration works, including the
addition of large wood logjams to the channel, are poorly quantified in the literature. Key …

Flash flood is a dangers natural disaster causes lots of structure damage, traffic collapse,
economic defects and human life loss. An efficient way to reduce its effects is preparing flash …

In setting design inflows to hydrodynamic models of flood flow along rivers, there can be a
conflict between site-specific hydrological estimates of flow for a given return period and …

The floodplains of many UK rivers are heavily managed to reduce the risk of flooding. The
presence of levées is thought to increase peak flows, decreasing the ability of the …

In recent years there has been debate over increasing flood risk in Britain, whilst the
perception of increased flood risk is becoming more prevalent. This comes at a time when …

In the context of rapidly expanding cities, it is imperative that urban planning in South Africa
has sufficient guidance regarding stormwater and river corridor management, in order to …
