The delta of the River Senegal was modified substantially by the construction of the Diama dam in 1986 and the floodplain and estuarine areas on the Mauritanian bank were affected severely by the absence of floods. In 1994, managed flood releases were initiated in the Bell basin (4000 ha) of the Diawling National Park, as part of a rehabilitation effort. The basin was designated as a joint mana...

Changes in climate, waterlogging hazards and regional floods are more prominent present context. The paper reviews potential of flood hazard dense urban areas, using GIS-based 1-D hydrodynamic model (MIKE URBAN). major factor contributing to the recent decades is climatic variability thus long-term variations precipitation drainage system an area were evaluated. MIKE URBAN (1-D) can be used com...

Flash floods are highly variable phenomena in both time and space. Therefore, tools with the potential to provide early warning are needed to analyse them. In Europe, flash floods often occur on small catchments; it has already been shown that the spatial variability of rainfall has a great impact on the catchment response. The aim of this paper is to use a coupled hydrological-hydraulic model ...

Superstandard conditions refer to extreme rainfall and river flooding that exceed the flood control system or works. In order explore influence of superstandard on urban waterlogging, based MIKE FLOOD platform, this paper takes downtown area Zhoukou as research object, it conducts waterlogging simulation in under once 20 years 50 combined with ultra-high water level river. The results inundatio...

A flexible mesh hydrodynamic model was developed to simulate flooding of the LaHave River watershed in Nova Scotia, Canada, from the combined effects of fluvial discharge and ocean tide and surge conditions. The analysis incorporated high-resolution lidar elevation data, bathymetric river and coastal chart data, and river cross-section information. These data were merged to generate a seamless ...
