Alternatives of drainage engineering in tidal flood prone areas using eco-infrastructure approach in North Pekalongan

Delineating flood prone areas using a statistical approach

8 Floods are frequent and widespread in Italy and pose a severe risk for the population. Local administrations commonly use flow propagation models to delineate the flood prone areas. These modeling approaches require a detail geo-environmental data knowledge, intensive calculation and long computational times. Conversely, statistical methods can be used to asses flood hazard over large areas, ...

Determination of flood-prone areas using Sentinel-1 Radar images (Case study: Flood on March 2019, Kashkan River, Lorestan Province)

Determination of flood-prone areas using Sentinel-1 Radar images (Case study: Flood on March 2019, Kashkan River, Lorestan Province) Introduction Although natural hazards occur in all parts of the world, their incidence is higher in Asia than in any other part of the world. Natural phenomena are considered as natural hazards when they cause damage or financial losses to human beings. Iran ...

SSR Marker-based Genetic Diversity Analysis of Tidal and Flood Prone Areas in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

One hundred and sixty rice varieties from the tidal and flood prone areas of south and south East Asian countries were analyzed. Samples sizes were: 50 varieties from Bangladesh (deepwater, tidal and flood prone rice and modern varieties), 14 varieties from India (flood prone rice), 16 varieties from Sri Lanka (flood prone rice), 7 varieties from Vietnam (tidal varieties), 69 varieties from Ind...
