Identifying Landslide Hazards in a Tropical Mountain Environment, Using Geomorphologic and Probabilistic Approaches
Title of Document: IDENTIFYING LANDSLIDE HAZARDS IN A TROPICAL MOUNTAIN ENVIRONMENT, USING GEOMORPHOLOGIC AND PROBABILISTIC APPROACHES José Gregorio Roa-Lobo PhD, 2007 Directed By: Prof. Michael Kearney, Department of Geography The objective of this study is the performance, assessing, comparison and validation of a set of three landslide hazard maps: The geomorphological, the multicriteria eva...
متن کاملEstimating the index flood using indirect methods
Three indirect techniques for index flood estimation are analysed in order to evaluate their applicability and effectiveness. These indirect techniques, based on both statistical and conceptual approaches, are applied to a set of 33 hydrometric stations, located in a large area in northern-central Italy. The results show that the statistical model, due to its flexible structure, has a better de...
متن کاملVolume-duration growth curves for flood estimation in permeable catchments
The volume and duration of groundwater discharge following extreme winter recharge events in permeable catchments can often be more disruptive than the peak discharge. An estimation procedure for annual maxima flood series in permeable catchments is extended to annual flood volumes for different durations. Growth factors for durations of 1 to 30 days and return periods of up to 250 years are de...
متن کاملFlood forecasting in transboundary catchments using the Open Modeling Interface
Using satellite data for flood forecasting in catchments located in mid-latitudes is challenging to engineers and model developers, in no small part due to the plethora of data sets that need to be retrieved, combined, calibrated and used for simulation in real time. The differences between the various satellite rainfall data products and the continuous improvement in their quantity and quality...
متن کاملImproving the flood prediction capability of the Xinanjiang model in ungauged nested catchments by coupling it with the geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph
Improving the predictive capabilities of rainfall-runoff models in ungauged catchments is a challenging task but has important theoretical and practical significance. In this study, we investigated the predictive capabilities of the conceptual Xinanjiang model (XAJ), which is widely used for flood forecasting and simulation in China, in ungauged catchments. We further produced a hybrid rainfall...
