GIS Based Hybrid Computational Approaches for Flash Flood Susceptibility Assessment

open access: yesWater (Switzerland), 2020
Flash floods are one of the most devastating natural hazards; they occur within a catchment (region) where the response time of the drainage basin is short.

Flash Floods

2023
The objectives of the chapter are the identification of flash flood causes, their negative effects on environmental factors, and to study of modeling with advanced hydroinformatic tools. The authors analyzed the following models: DUFLOW, developed by the International Institute for Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering, Delft, The Rijkswaterstaat ...

Flash flood forecasting, warning and risk management: the HYDRATE project

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Policy, 2011
International audienceThe management of flash flood hazards and risks is a critical component of public safety and quality of life. Flash-floods develop at space and time scales that conventional observation systems are not able to monitor for rainfall ...

Hydrometeorology of Flash Floods

2001
Flash floods are phenomena in which the important hydrologic processes are occurring on the same spatial and temporal scales as the intense precipitation. To date, the time required for appropriate public response has typically been much longer than the time between the causative precipitation and the subsequent flash flood. The impact of a flash flood

FLASH FLOOD FORECASTING USING FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE SYSTEM PRODUCTS

SGEM International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference� EXPO Proceedings, 2022
Flash floods are defined as rapidly developing extreme events caused by heavy or excessive amounts of rainfall. Flash floods usually occur over a relatively small area within six hours or less of the extreme event with quite a rapid streamflow rise and fall.

Flash Flood Indicator

2023
This report summarizes results of a research project sub-task performed under the supervision of the Ministry of the Environment between 2007 and 2011. It deals with determination of occurrence probability of flash floods resulting from torrential rain events.

A compilation of data on European flash floods

Journal of Hydrology, 2009
Flash floods are one of the most significant natural hazards in Europe, causing serious risk to life and destruction of buildings and infrastructure. This type of flood, often affecting ungauged watersheds, remains nevertheless a poorly documented phenomenon.

Floods in a flash

Nature Geoscience, 2007
The peak flow of glacier lake outburst floods — and consequently their potential for devastation — depends on air temperature.
