Increasing urban flash flood risk attributable to both climate and development
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.A new event impact attribution methodology that combines convection‐permitting climate model data with flood inundation modelling was used for a five‐hour flash‐flooding event in the suburbs of Leeds in 2014. The results show increased urban flood extent due to both climate change (+16%) and increased urbanisation (+29%).

A rapid and efficient method for flash flood simulation based on deep learning
Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid MechanicsAmong the various natural disasters, the death caused by flash flood is the highest. Recently, the combination of deep learning methods and hydrodynamic models has shown superior performance in the simulation of urban and plain areas.

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Torrential and flash flood warning : general overview and uses of localized hydropower
, 2022 Over recent years the use of hydrological models for forecasting water-based disasters (WD) has improved flood management capabilities worldwide. However, many of these applications present homogenous and generalized solutions based, in part, on limited ...

Meander‐Bend Erosion Dynamics Along a Gravel‐Bed River: Insights From Short‐Term UAV Monitoring
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Riverbank erosion is a natural process in meandering rivers that contributes to sediment supply and geomorphic diversity, yet it can threaten infrastructure and human activities within the floodplain. Recently, many studies have used high‐resolution remote sensing technologies to measure bank erosion, but they often focus on technical aspects ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The geometry of alluvial river channels can give insight into their stability, which can inform predictions of morphological change, flood risk and ecological degradation. Fundamental hydraulic geometry relations can be used to estimate the equilibrium dimensions of stable river channels by evaluating the balance between the erodibility of bed
