Nationwide Flood Monitoring for Disaster Risk Reduction Using Multiple Satellite Data
As part of the contribution to flood disaster risk reduction, it is important to identify and characterize flood areas, locations, and durations. Multiple satellite-based flood mapping and monitoring are an imperative process and the fundamental part of risk assessment in disaster risk management. In this paper, the MODIS-derived synchronized floodwater index (SfWi) was used to detect the maxim...
متن کاملMetaheuristics in Flood Disaster Management and Risk Assessment
A conceptual area is divided into units or barangays, each was allowed to evolve under a physical constraint. A risk assessment method is then used to identify the flood risk in each community using the following risk factors: the area's urbanized area ratio, literacy rate, mortality rate, poverty incidence, radio/TV penetration, and state of structural and non-structural measures. Vulnerabilit...
متن کاملTitle Flood reconstruction in Kullu valley, Himachal Pradesh (India): Implications for Disaster Risk Reduction strategies
The Western Himalayan region is subjected to intense and frequent disasters, resulting from intense rainfall and its steep topography. These characteristics, together with human activities concentrated in the valley, make this region highly susceptible to hydro-meteorological hazards, and frequently led to human losses. In this context, Disaster Risk Management (DRM) policies are the basis for ...
متن کاملRapid assessment of the riparian zone habitat of river
Some riparian areas of the country are in danger of deterioration due to uncontrolled exploitation coupled with loose implementation of environmental protection policies and regulations. Muleta River, a major watershed in Bukidnon, Philippines, was assessed to determine the present condition of its riparian habitat. Abiotic and biotic conditions of the river were assessed. Other factors includi...
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...
