An analysis of hydraulic, environmental and economic impacts of flood polder management at the Elbe River
The paper presents research results on flood risk mitigation by the controlled flooding of a retention area on the middle reaches of the Elbe River. The retention area consists of six large polders and the floodplain of a tributary, the Havel, and is located near the Havel’s confluence with the Elbe River. The total retention volume of both the polders and the Havel floodplain amounts to approx...

This is achieved through a scheme for the integrated operation of a number of reservoirs on that river and on its tributaries for the purpose of irrigation, hydropower generation and flood protection. Of particular interest is the recent change in policy towards a multi-disciplinar...
متن کاملFlood Risk and River Basin Management
The aim of this study is to identify the sources of uncertainty that induce the largest uncertainties in the model outcomes and quantify this uncertainty using expert elicitation. Analysis of expert opinions showed that the Qh-relation and the roughness predictor of the main channel cause the largest uncertainties for design water level computations. For effect studies, the floodplain topograph...
متن کاملThe replacement value of flood plains as nutrient sinks: a case study of the river Elbe
The increasing reduction of wetlands such as riparian areas is regarded as a serious loss due to their high ecological value. A growing need for the assessment of wetland values and the beneficial ecosystem services they provide is noted. An overview of recent studies using different approaches to assign monetary values to different valuable functions is given. In a case study of the river Elbe...
