River cross-section extraction from the ASTER global DEM for flood modeling
An approach to generate river cross-sections from the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer Global Digital Elevation Model (ASTER GDEM) is discussed. The low resolution and the inadequate vertical accuracy of such global data present difficulties in differentiating features of hydraulic importance, which necessitate pre-processing of the DEMs before they are used. A ver...
متن کاملGlobal-scale river flood vulnerability in the last 50 years
The impacts of flooding are expected to rise due to population increases, economic growth and climate change. Hence, understanding the physical and spatiotemporal characteristics of risk drivers (hazard, exposure and vulnerability) is required to develop effective flood mitigation measures. Here, the long-term trend in flood vulnerability was analysed globally, calculated from the ratio of the ...
متن کاملA framework for global river flood risk assessments
There is an increasing need for strategic global assessments of flood risks in current and future conditions. In this paper, we propose a framework for global flood risk assessment for river floods, which can be applied in current conditions, as well as in future conditions due to climate and socio-economic changes. The framework’s goal is to establish flood hazard and impact estimates at a hig...
متن کاملModeling Flood Inundation Induced by River Flow and Storm Surges over a River Basin
Low-lying coastal regions and their populations are at risk during storm surge events and high freshwater discharges from upriver. An integrated storm surge and flood inundation modeling system was used to simulate storm surge and inundation in the Tsengwen River basin and the adjacent coastal area in southern Taiwan. A three-dimensional hydrodynamic model with an unstructured grid was used, wh...
متن کاملIndia: Flood Management - Damodar River Basin
Information is provided about the approach and experience in flood management in the Damodar river basin of India. This is achieved through a scheme for the integrated operation of a number of reservoirs on that river and on its tributaries for the purpose of irrigation, hydropower generation and flood protection. Of particular interest is the recent change in policy towards a multi-disciplinar...
