Seven centuries of reconstructed Brahmaputra River discharge demonstrate underestimated high discharge and flood hazard frequency

Flood discharge estimation from river channel dimensions: results of applications in Java, Burundi, Ghana and Tanzania

The channel-geometry method is an indirect method of flood estimation which relies on the development of relations between flood discharges, measured at gauging stations, and channel dimensions, measured from natural river reaches in the vicinity of the gauge. Channel-geometry equations enable flood discharges to be estimated at ungauged locations on natural streams from measurements of channel...

River Discharge Estimation by Using Altimetry Data and Simplified Flood Routing Modeling

A methodology to estimate the discharge along rivers, even poorly gauged ones, taking advantage of water level measurements derived from satellite altimetry is proposed. The procedure is based on the application of the Rating Curve Model (RCM), a simple method allowing for the estimation of the flow conditions in a river section using only water levels recorded at that site and the discharges o...

Frequency response of multipactor discharge

This paper analyzes the frequency response of a two-surface multipactor in a rf circuit. An equation for the frequency band in which steady state multipactor can occur is derived in terms of the secondary emission properties of the surface, the quality factor Q of the rf circuit, and the operating voltage. The steady-state multipactor current is also derived, and is shown to be in excellent agr...
