Towards a coherent flood forecasting framework for Canada: Local to global implications
Journal of Flood Risk ManagementOperational flood forecasting in Canada is a provincial responsibility that is carried out by several entities across the country. However, the increasing costs and impacts of floods require better and nationally coordinated flood prediction systems.

Improvement of flood forecasting simulations with the Telemark Flood Forecasting Model
, 2016 Flood is the most common environmental hazard worldwide and can have an devastating consequences affecting the economy, environment, and people. The causes and nature of flood may be different, but it is important to control all of them. The typical cause of flood in Norway is a combination of heavy rainfall and snowmelt which results in an unexpected ...

A Real-Time Flood Forecasting Technique
Water International, 1984 ABSTRACT A simple hydrologic technique is presented which is applied to short-term forecasting of floodflows at the outlet of a river basin by using rainfall information and water levels of the flood events at an upstream index station of the basin. The time of occurrence of the forecasted floodflow is also estimated.

Potential for seasonal flood forecasting in West Africa using climate indexes
Journal of Flood Risk ManagementFloods are among the most devastating natural disasters and are expected to become more severe with changing climate and population growth. Flood forecasting is one of the key components of flood risk reduction.

Advances in real–time flood forecasting [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2002 This paper discusses the modelling of rainfall-flow (rainfall-run-off) and flow-routeing processes in river systems within the context of real-time flood forecasting. It is argued that deterministic, reductionist (or 'bottom-up') models are inappropriate for real-time forecasting because of the inherent uncertainty that characterizes river-catchment ...
