Traditional flood control systems always have a conflict with natural ones, i.e., rivers in cities are usually straight and smooth, whereas natural ones are according to ecological mechanisms. Social and economic developments in the modern world require a new system combining ecological needs and traditional flood control system. Ecological flood control systems were put forward and defined as ...

Mountain torrent disaster warning system is a significant non-engineering flood prevention measure for achieving the goals of flood prevention and disaster reduction in the related small rivers. After analyzing the design principle and objective of the system, we proposed a mountain torrent disaster warning system based on WEB GIS technology and the distributed hydrological model (DHM) of the r...

Although Amazon Fan is one of the largest deep-sea fans in the world, it’s architectural features are typical of "mud-rich" fans developed on passive margins, regardless of their size (c.f. Bouma et al., 1985). Because Amazon Fan is the only modern fan whose architectural elements have been systematically drilled and continuously cored, it is one of the most important modern analogs for underst...

there are different methods for controling the flood damages which one of them is flood zoning. in this method, flood zones are determined by simulating river hydraulic behavior and its flood plain for different return periods.in other hand, soil and specially plant coverage are the most effective factor to determine manning roughness coefficient. so it is expected, seasonal plant coverage chan...

An efficient flood alarm system may significantly improve public safety and mitigate damages caused by inundation. Flood forecasting is undoubtedly a challenging field of operational hydrology and a huge literature has been developed over the years. In this paper, we first define ordered ideal intuitionistic fuzzy sets and establish some results on them. Then, we define similarity measures betw...

A two-component fully automated flood monitoring system is described and evaluated. This is a result of combining two individual flood services that are currently under development at DLR’s (German Aerospace Center) Center for Satellite based Crisis Information (ZKI) to rapidly support disaster management activities. A first-phase monitoring component of the system systematically detects potent...

a flood warning system is a non-structural measure for flood mitigation. several parameters are responsible for flood related disasters. this work  illustrates an ordered intuitionistic fuzzy analysis that has the capability to simulate the unknown relations between a set of meteorological and hydrological parameters. in this paper, we first define ordered intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets and est...

Coastal flooding is a problem of increasing relevance in low-lying coastal regions worldwide. In addition to the anticipated increase in likelihood and magnitude of coastal floods due to climate change, there is rapid growth in coastal assets and infrastructure. Sustainable and integrated coastal flood management over large areas and varying coastline types cannot be simply treated as local com...
