The Miami Conservancy District built five flood control dams after the catastrophic flood of 1913 in Dayton, Ohio. Lockington Dam was one of these five hydraulic fill structures. The Ohio State Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) issued new regulations in 1981 requiring that design flood for class I dams be considered equal to the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). Flood routing studies performed...

BACKGROUND Flood is one of the most common and severe forms of natural disasters. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common disorder among victims of various disasters including flood. Early prediction for PTSD could benefit the prevention and treatment of PTSD. This study aimed to establish a prediction model for the occurrence of PTSD among adults in flood districts. METHODS A cross-...

The objective of this research was to identify factors affecting tree damage in the historical Minot flood of 2011. We hypothesized that tree height, identity, origin, and maximum water height affect in the severity of damage sustained by a tree in a flood event. All these factors were significant but highly interactive. The results from this research can influence planting practices in valleys...

It is important for hydropower dams to estimate PMP (Probable Maximum Precipitation) appropriately and prepare the plan of facilities modification operational changes in advance, because future flood risk by climate change influence getting higher. In this paper, we compared three methods estimation, conventional method applying DAD (Duration Area Depth) analysis based on experienced rain resul...
