In developing flood maps, there are two common approaches namely one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic modelling. The 1D approach is a conventional method utilized to simulate the flood behaviors in the river channel using 1D hydrodynamic in-bank model and to map the characteristics mainly on depth and extent of flood for a par...

In response to climatic change, the size and number of moraine-dammed supraglacial and proglacial lake systems have increased dramatically in recent decades. Given an appropriate trigger, the natural moraine dams that impound these proglacial lakes are breached, producing catastrophic Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs). These floods are highly co...
The Obion River watershed is located in North-West Tennessee. It has predominantly agrarian land use with small urban settlements. Significant increase in agricultural activity has been observed in last few decades in that region. Since 1980, annual lowest water level (LWL) in stream gages along the North Fork, Middle Fork, South Fork and Rutherfor...
The objective of the present work was to evaluate sources of uncertainty in dam break simulations for areas with contrasting characteristics: one in a narrow valley with high slopes, and another an open valley with low slopes. A sensitivity analysis of the hydrodynamic model Hec-Ras 5.03 was performed, varying the input data of the model (Manning c...
A novel approach for assessing flood risk in river catchments in a spatially consistent way is presented. The approach is based on a set of coupled models representing the complete flood risk chain, including a multisite, multivariate weather generator, a hydrological model, a coupled 1D–2D hydrodynamic model and a flood loss model. The approach is...
This study discusses the flooding related consequences of climate change on most populous Canadian cities and flow regulation infrastructure (FRI). The discussion is based on the aggregated results of historical and projected future flooding frequencies and flood timing as generated by Canada-wide hydrodynamic modelling in a previous study.
