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

Reconstructing the Holocene history of the Tennessee River using paleosols and paleoflood sediments
This dissertation presents the results of chronological, pedological, and paleohydrological studies of five Holocene soil profiles exposed along the floodplain of the Tennessee River in the Chickamauga Reservoir.

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 ...
