Hydrodynamic Modeling of Stratification and Mixing in a Shallow, Tropical Floodplain Lake
Floodplain lakes are widespread and ecologically important throughout tropical river systems, however data are rare that describe how temporal variations in hydrological, meteorological and optical conditions moderate stratification and mixing in these ...

The Downstream Impacts of Ethiopia's Gibe III Dam [PDF]
If Ethiopia completes the Gibe III Dam, now under construction on the Middle Omo River, and continues to press ahead with large-scale irrigation developments in the Lower Omo Basin, the result will be a cascade of hydrological, ecological and socio ...

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary
ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.

Development of Next‐Generation Flood Inundation Maps: A Case Study in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan
ABSTRACT Flood inundation mapping has become a critical reference for flood risk management, particularly for determining insurance premiums and formulating mitigation strategies in rapidly urbanizing areas with high population density. With recent advancements in mapping technologies and high computing capacity, high‐resolution spatiotemporal datasets

ABSTRACT The reliability of flood event simulations is a crucial aspect in terms of saving lives. The worst flood scenarios derive from possible dam failures. For earthen dams, the breaching mechanism, triggered by overtopping or piping, is affected by several modelling uncertainties, which propagate downstream and may influence flood hazard mapping ...
