Application of Remote Sensing Data to Constrain Operational Rainfall-Driven Flood Forecasting: A Review

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2016
Fluvial flooding is one of the most catastrophic natural disasters threatening people’s lives and possessions. Flood forecasting systems, which simulate runoff generation and propagation processes, provide information to support flood warning delivery ...

NON-PARAMETRIC STATISTICAL APPROACH TO CORRECT SATELLITE RAINFALL DATA IN NEAR-REAL-TIME FOR RAIN BASED FLOOD NOWCASTING [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Floods resulting from intense rainfall are one of the most disastrous hazards in many regions of the world since they contribute greatly to personal injury and to property damage mainly as a result of their ability to strike with little warning.

High-Resolution Urban Flood Forecasting by Using a Coupled Atmospheric and Hydrodynamic Flood Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Flood forecasting is one of the most significant tools for reducing flood risk and avoiding the loss of life To solve the problem of low resolution and the short lead time of the traditional urban flood forecasting method, this work develops a novel high-

Evaluating Flood Forecasting System Performance in Cambodia [PDF]

open access: yes
Every year, Cambodia experiences flooding as a result of monsoon rains and typhoons. Flood forecasting systems are designed to enable people to mitigate economic and social impacts from these events. However, in order for forecasts to be used effectively,

PROBLEMS OF FORECASTING FLOODS AND FLOODING

open access: yesНаука. Инновации. Технологии, 2022
The article draws attention to the fact that floods take place every year in Russia and some of them bring a huge damage to the country. Their reliable prediction requires timely determine of the amount and timing of rain and streams of power and speed channel flow throughout the river.

Comparative analysis of spring flood risk reduction measures in Alaska, United States and the Sakha Republic, Russia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Thesis (Ph.D.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2017River ice thaw and breakup are an annual springtime phenomena in the North. Depending on regional weather patterns and river morphology, breakups can result in catastrophic floods in exposed and ...

Forecasters priorities for improving probabilistic flood forecasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Abstract. Hydrological ensemble prediction systems (HEPS) have in recent years been increasingly used for the operational forecasting of floods by hydrometeorological agencies. The most obvious advantages of HEPS are that more of the uncertainty in the modelling system can be assessed; and that ensemble prediction systems generally have better skill ...

Integration of UH SUH, HEC-RAS, and GIS in Flood Mitigation with Flood Forecasting and Early Warning System for Gilireng Watershed, Indonesia

open access: yesEarth
A flood forecasting and early warning system is critical for rivers that have a large flood potential, one of which is the Gilireng watershed, which floods every year and causes many losses in Wajo Regency, Indonesia.
