متن کاملEnvironmental sensitivity of flash flood hazard using geospatial techniques
Flash flood has been increasing in the Khartoum area, Sudan due to geographical conditions and climatic change as heavy rainfall and high temperature, therefore the present work tried to estimate the sensitivity of flash flood. The present work proposes an advanced technique of flood sensitivity mapping using the method of analytical hierarchy process. Ten factors as elevation, slope, distance ...
متن کاملFlash flood and sediment modeling with TREX
TREX is a physically-based, distributed model that simulates flash floods, sediment transport, and chemical transport and fate processes at the watershed scale. Basic processes in TREX include precipitation, interception, infiltration, surface runoff, and channel flow, erosion and deposition of upland soil and channel bed sediment, and chemical transport. TREX is readily coupled with standard G...
