Rivers are important water resources for human life, but sometimes cause irreparable damages. The flood plains are fertile terrains which are endangered by flood. Flood hazard mapping is one of the basic methods in flood fighting. In order to decline flood damages, the simulation of the hydraulic behavior of the rivers during flood occurrence is very important. In this study, areas that are flo...

check dams, are small dams in the watershed. these dams are constructed in susceptible areas to erosion due to reduce of flow velocity and erosion, control of sediment and flood in upstream of reservoir dams. these structures are made using wood, stone and cement, and gabion. these structures change the hydrological response of the watershed by reducing flow velocity, the channel slope and stor...

the main aim of the current paper is to discuss the important effective variables, particularly synoptic patterns, in creating flood in masoule basin using flood discharge data in komadoul station during 20 year period (1984-2003). to achieve the aim, daily average and instantaneous maximum of discharge in mentioned station were used. data accuracy was done using the data for chomesghal station...

Constructing of control structures, like dams, change temporal and spatial unequal distribution of water ,and also play an effective role in reduce or eliminate of damage that caused by floods. So reservoir dam’s effect on floods discharges reduction must be determined. In this study the rain Information and flood hydrographs were used to check the flood routing for previous period of Maroon da...

Climate change is projected to increase the frequency of extreme events, such as flooding and droughts, which are anticipated to have negative effects on the biodiversity of primary producers and consequently the associated consumer communities. Here we assessed the effects of an extreme early summer flooding event in 2013 on ant colonies along an experimental gradient of plant species richness...
