Learning from Floods: Linking flood experience and flood resilience

Journal of Environmental Management, 2020
It has been argued that learning from flood experience contributes to flood resilience. However, it is unclear what such a learning process involves, and it is debatable whether flood experience always leads to flood resilience. To bridge this research gap, we develop the Learning from Floods (LFF) model to articulate the process of learning from flood

Extract flood duration from Dartmouth Flood Observatory flood product

2017 6th International Conference on Agro-Geoinformatics, 2017
Climate change has become a hot topic in recent years. Flood is one of the most common natural hazards caused from extreme climate change. Scientists have spent a lot of money and time on monitoring flood in past decades. The development of Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) brings new ways for scientists to analyze, monitor, and ...

Flood risk and flood management

Journal of Hydrology, 2002
Abstract Risk management has been established as a well defined procedure for handling risks due to natural, environmental or man made hazards, of which floods are representative. Risk management has been discussed in many previous papers giving different meanings to the term—a result of the fact that risk management actually takes place on three ...

Flood of Fear

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Canada, 2014
J Obstet Gynaecol Can 2014;36(1):9–10 T tachypnea, diaphoresis, lightheadedness, pallor—these are just some of the symptoms and signs health care professionals might experience when caring for a woman with postpartum hemorrhage. Postpartum hemorrhage is a “predictably unpredictable” obstetrical emergency,1 most of which are due to uterine atony.

Chemical Flooding and Miscible Flooding

2018
Chemical flooding is an important tertiary oil recovery technology that can improve oil recovery by adding various chemicals in the injected water. Miscible flooding is an oil displacement method using miscible phase injectant as the displacing agent. In recent years, both chemical flooding and miscible flooding have developed rapidly.

Flood waves and flooding models

1994
The paper briefly recalls the theory and properties of flood waves in the first part. The second part is devoted to physical models. These models can be used to study the impact of river crossings or any other kind of construction on floods and to design compensation works, or to define mitigation measures in small areas.

Flooding and Segmentation

2002
Flooding is at the heart of morphological segmentation. The properties of floodings, defined as upper levelings are first studied. If g is a flooding of f, its catchment basins re unions of the catchment basins of f. For this reason, it is possible to construct multiscale segmentations associated to families of increasing floodings of a given reference
