Delineation of flood hazard and flood risk areas is a critical issue, but practical difficulties
regularly make complete achievement of the task a challenge. In data-scarce environments …

Flood inundation maps typically have been used to depict inundated areas for floods having
specific exceedance levels. The uncertainty associated with the inundation boundaries is …

This study investigates the utility of satellite-based rainfall estimates in simulating flash
floods in Karpuz River Basin, Turkey, characterized by limited rain gauge network. Global …

Reflectivity data from weather radar provide information on the location and quantity of water
and ice in the atmosphere at high spatial and temporal resolutions. Although the analysis of …

This paper presents a new flood modelling tool developed by coupling a full 2D
hydrodynamic model with hydrological models. The coupled model overcomes the main …

Accurate prediction of a flood inundation area constitutes an essential part of a flood
forecasting system. When a river reach receives significant lateral inflows, flood inundation …

Flood warning systems have become increasingly important for highly urbanized areas like
the Texas Medical Center (TMC) area in the Brays Bayou Watershed of southwest Houston …

Mediterranean catchments are regularly affected by fast and flash floods. Numerous
hydrologic models have been developed, and allow modelling of these floods. However …

This book provides the practical basis for the use of remote sensing to accomplish
landscape ecological projects, through the merging of theory and practice, with examples …

The second-generation radar-based flood alert system (FAS2) has been operational for
more than a decade, and provides accurate advanced warning to the Texas Medical Center …
