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

Plant waterlogging/flooding stress responses: From seed germination to maturation.

Plant physiology and biochemistry : PPB, 2020
Global climate change is strongly associated with variations in precipitation and flooding events. Flooding usually causes submergence- or partial submergence stress in plants, which significantly has a negative influence on agricultural production, from

Influence of changes in rainfall and soil moisture on trends in flooding

Journal of Hydrology, 2019
Despite the expectation that increases in rainfall with climatic change will result in increases in pluvial flooding, there is more historical evidence for decreases in flood magnitude.

Partial flooding and its effect on the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell

, 2020
Water management is one of the key issues for efficient and stable operation of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Water flooding easily occurs at the elevated operation current density, especially at the downstreaming of the flow channel ...

The significance and functions of ethylene in flooding stress tolerance in plants

, 2020
Climate change has increased the global environmental risks, especially the impacts of abiotic stresses on agriculture productivity. Among the abiotic stresses aggravated by climate change, flooding (complete submergence, stagnant flooding, soil ...

ASP Flood After a Polymer Flood vs. ASP Flood After a Water Flood

SPE Improved Oil Recovery Conference, 2018
Abstract Alkaline-surfactant-polymer (ASP) flooding is an effective technique to improve oil recovery. It has been applied typically after a water flood. Recently, there has been a successful field test where an ASP flood was conducted after a polymer 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 enhancement through flood control

Geology, 2001
Flood stages for constant discharge have increased 2–4 m over the past century at numerous locations in the Mississippi River basin. However, no increases are observed on rivers such as the Meramec and the upper Missouri, which have been spared extensive river engineering projects.
