Coupling Waterlogging Hazard Assessment Based on SWMM–LISFLOOD Simulation in Chaoyang River Basin of Nanning, China

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban stormwater waterlogging poses significant threats to public safety and property, making scientific and effective risk management a crucial element in China's whole‐area sponge city construction. This study evaluates waterlogging hazards in Nanning's Chaoyang River Basin using a SWMM–LISFLOOD coupled model to simulate 11 design storm ...

Hydrological reconstruction and climatic background of the Holocene extreme paleoflood event in the Danjiang River, central China

open access: yesOpen Geosciences
The Danjiang River Basin, situated in central China, serves as the water source for the Middle Route of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. The occurrence of catastrophic rainstorm-induced floods within this basin constitutes a significant hazard

Can XRF scanning of speleothems be used as a non-destructive method to identify paleoflood events in caves?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2015
We have developed a novel, quick and non-destructive method for tracing flood events in caves through the analysis of a stalagmite thick section with an XRF core scanner.

Sedimentary records of palaeohydrological variability during the Late Holocene in the Lower Narmada Basin, western India

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Late Holocene palaeohydrological changes in the lower Narmada Basin, India, revealed using multiproxy analyses of the Orsang River terrace sediments. Distinct depositional phases corresponding to global climatic events were recorded. High‐magnitude floods in the Narmada River during the MWP, and within the tributary Orsang River during DACP and LIA ...

Cave Dripwater Magnetic Minerals Record Seasonal Rainfall Variability: New Insights From a 5‐Years Field Monitoring in Central China

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Stalagmites provide an invaluable archive at high‐resolution for paleoclimate studies. However, it is challenging to extract independent hydroclimate signals from stalagmites due to the scarcity of reliable hydrological proxies. Although the magnetic parameters of stalagmites have shown great potential in recording regional hydrological ...

Holocene Paleoflood Stratigraphy and Sedimentary Events in the Poompuhar Reach, Lower Cauvery River

open access: yesGeoHazards
The Late Holocene flood history of the Cauvery River floodplain in the Poompuhar region was reconstructed using a multiproxy sedimentological approach applied to three trench cores. Lithostratigraphy, loss on ignition (LOI), magnetic susceptibility (MS),

Exploring relations between arroyo cycles and canyon paleoflood records in Buckskin Wash, Utah: reconciling scientific paradigms

open access: yes, 2011
A new chronostratigraphy for a suite of Holocene alluvial deposits along Buckskin Wash, Utah, shows that dynamic upstream alluvial systems have an important and as-yet-unrecognized influence on the origin and preservation of downstream paleoflood records.

The Paleo‐Serchio River: history of floods between Lucca and Pisa during the Roman period

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 141-152, January 2025.
ABSTRACT The reconstruction of flood frequency beyond the Instrumental Era is challenging and mostly based on historical sources, but it rarely covers more than the last 1000 years when abundant documentation is preserved. To investigate the long‐term trends in flooding and obtain insight into current climatic changes it is necessary to extend these ...

Holocene Lake Sediments Reveal Alluvial Fan History With Links to Climate, Wildfire, and Earthquakes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 129, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract Flood hazards along alluvial rivers vary over time due to changes in both flow regime and channel morphology; however, their millennial‐scale histories are difficult to study from incomplete and poorly dated alluvial stratigraphies. Thus, the role of external forcings (e.g., climate) in the magnitude of alluvial channel dynamics remains poorly
