While 1D, 2D, and coupled 1D/2D models are widely used in flood extent mapping, a significant research gap remains in comparative analyses of 2D and coupled 1D/2D approaches. Study of the Dinsiz Stream Basin is of critical importance due to its proxi...
Recent studies strongly suggest the possibility of more frequent extreme events as a result of the changing climate. These weather extremes, such as excessive rainfall, result in debris flow, river overflow and urban flooding, which can pose a substa...
Focusing on the Lingshan section of Guangxi’s Pinglu Canal, this study addresses frequent waterlogging during construction under subtropical monsoon rainfall. Human disturbances alter hydrological processes, causing project delays and economic...
To provide accurate and efficient forecasting of fluvial flooding assessment in the river basin, the present study links the well-known CA-based urban inundation modeling (2D-OFM-CA) with a one-dimensional river flow model (1D-RFM) as a coupled 1D-2D...
Flood risk assessment in urban areas is becoming increasingly important due to climate change and rapid urbanization. This study presents an integrated flood risk modeling framework for the city of Volos, Thessaly, Greece, coupling the Soil and Water...
This article addresses the issue of flood management using four flood storage areas in the middle section of Huai River in China which protect the important downstream city of Bengbu. The same areas are also used by the local population as residentia...
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) remote sensing data can be used as an effective alternative to detect surface water and provide useful information regarding operational flood monitoring, in particular for the improvement of rapid flood assessments. Ho...
An integrated early warning system (EWS) for compound coastal and fluvial flooding is developed for Pyrgos, Western Greece, where low-lying geomorphology and past storm events highlight the need for rapid, impact-based forecasting. The methodology co...
The research presented herein develops and compares an ADCIRC and ADCIRC/HEC-RAS (1D) paired model for the purpose of compound flood modeling within the Tar River and Pamlico Sound basins of North Carolina. Both the ADCIRC and 1D HEC-RAS models are c...
Predicting flood dynamics in data-scarce urban catchments remains a major hydrological challenge, yet physically-based modeling is essential for design mitigation infrastructure. This study assessed the impact of land cover change on the hydrological...
Levee breaches are some of the most common hazards in the world and cause the loss of lives, livelihoods, and property destruction. During the 2010 flood in Pakistan, the most devastating breach occurred at Tori Levee on the right bank of the Indus R...
The South Saskatchewan River (SSR) is one of the most important river systems in Saskatchewan and, arguably, in Canada. Most of the Saskatchewan residents, industries, and powerplants depend on the SSR for their water requirements. An established 1D...
Southern New Jersey faces increasing flood risk due to several factors including rapid development, climate change, and aging infrastructure. This study evaluated the flood vulnerability of two municipal solid waste landfills located in Gloucester an...
This study investigates the potential of Sentinel-1 data in assisting flood modeling procedures. Two different synthetic aperture radar (SAR) processing methodologies, one simplified based on single-flood image thresholding and one automatic based on...
In this study, we conducted flood mapping of a hypothetical dam break by coupling the Hydrologic Engineering Center’s Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) and River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) models under different return periods of flood inflow. This...
Floods are among the most devastating natural hazards, causing widespread damage to lives, livelihoods, and infrastructure, particularly in vulnerable river basins. The Cagayan River Basin (CRB), the largest and most flood-prone basin in the Philippi...
On 18 September 2020, the Karditsa prefecture of Thessaly region (Greece) experienced a catastrophic flood as a consequence of the IANOS hurricane. This intense phenomenon was characterized by rainfall records ranging from 220 mm up to 530 mm, in a t...
Nowadays, as extreme weather increasingly threatens human health and economy, early warning system approaches are critical for timely preparedness and response. Towards the implementation of a multi-model forecasting system for flood hazards, this st...

Deterioration of the ecological environment in the upper and middle reaches of the Yellow River in China substantially impacts the growth and development of aquatic organisms in the drainage basin. This paper builds a conceptual model by applying flo...
Urbanization, together with shifts in rainfall patterns, has become an increasingly important driver of hydrological extremes in many rapidly developing tropical regions. In the Cimanceuri River Basin, Tangerang Regency, Indonesia, these processes ha...
Deterministic empirical formulas often fail to capture the epistemic uncertainties of dam failure mechanisms, leading to biased risk estimations. To address this, we propose the Probabilistic Hydro-Risk Forecasting System (PHRFS), a stochastic framew...
Recent advances in numerical modelling, remote sensing, and artificial intelligence are bringing a transformation in our ability to assess sediment transport. Nevertheless, climate change is fundamentally altering sediment production, transport, and...
