Analyses of Extreme Flood in the Holocene to Improve Flood Frequency Estimation

open access: yes, 2022
Electronic Thesis or DissertationExtreme floods observations are underrepresented in short stream gauge records. Consequently, instrumented records are limited in providing meaningful insight into their mechanistic drivers and frequency.

Caves and Dam Safety Improving Design with Evidences from Paleoseismology and Paleohydrology

open access: yes, 2020
Karts regions poses enormous difficulties in dam construction and operation. The preservation of dam safety should be firstly based in detailed and rigorous geological, hydrological and geophysical studies.

Pluridisciplinary analysis and multi-archive reconstruction of paleofloods: societal demand, challenges and progress

open access: yes
Floods are one of the gravest natural hazards for societies, worsened by population growth, unchecked development, and climate change. From a Global Change perspective, past extreme events merit particular interest because they can be linked to wider ...

Searching for Flood Rings in Quercus Macrocarpa on the Lower Chippewa River

open access: yes, 2018
Color poster with text, images, charts, maps and graphs.Dendrohydrology studies offer annually resolved flood data for paleofloods, those occurring before modern instrumentation, especially for high magnitude, low-frequency events.
