Understanding the Impact of Precipitation Bias‐Correction and Statistical Downscaling Methods on Projected Changes in Flood Extremes

open access: yesEarth's Future
This study evaluates five bias correction and statistical downscaling (BCSD) techniques for daily precipitation and examines their impacts on the projected changes in flood extremes (i.e., 1%, 0.5%, and 0.2% floods). We use climate model outputs from the

Quantifying uncertainty in urban flooding analysis considering hydro-climatic projection and urban development effects [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011
How will the combined impacts of land use change, climate change, and hydrologic modeling influence changes in urban flood frequency and what is the main uncertainty source of the results?

Anthropogenic climate change has changed frequency of past flood during 2010-2013

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2021
The ongoing increases in anthropogenic radiative forcing have changed the global water cycle and are expected to lead to more intense precipitation extremes and associated floods.

High‐Throughput Exfoliation of Optoelectronic‐Grade MoS2 via Turbulent‐Flow Wet Jet Milling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable wet jet milling exfoliation method is demonstrated for producing optoelectronic‐grade MoS2 nanosheets using environmentally friendly ethyl cellulose in ethanol dispersion media. Guided by fluid dynamics modeling, this approach is optimized to achieve record‐high exfoliation throughput and concentration.

Exploring the experience of insured UK homeowners in flood disasters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The frequency of flooding and the number of properties at risk of flooding in the UK are forecast to increase. Costs associated with flooding are usually significant and include for the provision of adequate flood defences, emergency services as well as ...

Frequency and seasonality of flash floods in Slovenia [PDF]

open access: yesGeographica Pannonica, 2017
The purpose of this paper is to assess and analyse the dynamics of flash flooding events in Slovenia. The paper examines in particular the frequency of flash floods and their seasonal distribution.

POM‐Based Water Splitting Catalyst Under Acid Conditions Driven by Its Assembly on Carbon Nanotubes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A newly‐engineered POM‐based electrocatalyst incorporating non‐innocent counter cations exhibits fast kinetics for either the OER or HER under strongly acidic conditions (1 m H2SO4), depending on whether it is assembled on carbon nanotubes (1@CNT) or physically mixed with them (1/CNT). In water‐splitting tests using a two‐electrode setup, these systems

Large-scale attribution of trend in UK flood flow data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The objective of this study is to undertake a preliminary investigation of trend in annual maximum series of peak flood data in the United Kingdom, as a precursor to developing a more complete procedure for non-stationary flood frequency estimation.

Threshold effects in catchment storm response and the occurrence and magnitude of flood events: implications for flood frequency [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007
The aim of this paper is to illustrate the effects of selected catchment storage thresholds upon runoff behaviour, and specifically their impact upon flood frequency.

Flood frequency analysis

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1979
Panattoni and Wallis' treatment of the flood frequency analysis problem i s masterful; one hopes that its appearance will put and end to the proliferation of naive efforts to establish a nonsubjective statistical method. Their treatment of the systems analysis phase of the problem makes use of the latest computational techniques, but one doubts that ...
