A compilation of data on European flash floods
Journal of Hydrology, 2009Flash 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.

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 ...

Hydrometeorology of Flash Floods
2001Flash 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, 2022Flash 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.

Simulation of Tsunami and Flash Floods
2008Impacts to the built environment from hazards such tsunami or flash floods are critical in understanding the economic and social effects on our communities. In order to simulate the behaviour of water flow from such hazards within the built environment, Geoscience Australia and the Australian National University are developing a software modelling tool

Chapter three covers the UFW movement’s five-year campaign (1965-1970) to unionize table grape workers in California’s San Joaquin and Coachella valleys. In these five years, pro-UFW farmworkers and their Chicana/o allies confronted the Rancher Nation in multiple spaces in the Coachella Valley, culminating like a flash flood in 1970, when local table ...
