To create the final spatial information and analysis, flood hazard maps and land development priority maps and information, data for the flood events to 2009 in north of Iran were incorporated with using Geo-spatial Information System data of physiographic divisions, geologic divisions, land cover classification, elevation, drainage network, administrative districts and population density and e...

By means of the physical process-based modeling approache to computing coastal and estuarine hydrodynamic and morphodynamic processes, an integrated model system was developed to simulate tides, waves, currents, winds, sediment transport, and morphological changes in coastal and estuarine regions. This paper presents an overview of this integrated morphological process modeling system consistin...

The FloodRISE hazard maps produced for the Tijuana River Valley and the Goat Canyon Watershed resulted from three distinct tasks: flood frequency analysis (FFA), hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, and post-processing of model output. Generally speaking, FFA estimates the recurrence interval of rare flooding events, while hydrologic and hydraulic modeling predicts the hazards associated with sim...

Uncertainties in flood stage prediction and bed evolution in rivers are frequently associated with the evolution of bedforms over a hydrograph. For the case of flood prediction, the evolution of the bedforms may alter the effective bed roughness, so predictions of stage and velocity based on assuming bedforms retain the same size and shape over a hydrograph will be incorrect. These same effects...
