Effect of digital elevation model’s resolution in producing flood hazard maps
Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters occurring annually in the Philippines. A call for a solution for this malady is very challenging as well as crucial to be addressed. Mapping flood hazard is an effective tool in determining the extent and depth of floods associated with hazard level in specified areas that need to be prioritized during flood occurrences. Precedent to the...
متن کاملFlood hazard zones using 2d hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing approaches
Increasing frequency and severity of flooding demands identification of flood hazard zones in Kalilangan, Bukidnon in response to the echoing need of better disaster preparedness via enhancing the understanding and awareness of the public on flood characteristics by integrating the use of two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing. Flood simulation was carried out in a two-dimensi...

In the Tsunami of Dec. 26, 2004, although there was a large distance between the earthquake center of Indian Ocean and coastal cities of Iran, the Tsunami waves brought some damages in Chabahar coast. This means that if the earthquake center was closer to Iran, Iran’s coastal regions would have confronted serious danger... In the present study, we used ComMIT software (Community Model Int...
متن کاملSpatial Statistics of Tsunami Overland Flow Properties
Numerical models are a key component of methodologies used to estimate tsunami risk, and model predictions are essential for the development of tsunami hazard assessments (THAs). By better understanding model bias and variability and, if possible, minimizing them, more reliable THAs will result. In this study, the authors compare run-up height, inundation lines, and flow-velocity field measurem...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Simulations of Historic Tsunamis from the Cascadia Subduction Zone
INTRODUCTION We use new geological and hydrodynamic models to simulate the sea floor deformation and tsunami runup and inundation in Cannon Beach, Oregon (Fig. 1) produced by Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ) earthquakes. We then compare the simulated inundation with inland extent of buried sand sheets inferred to be of tsunami origin. The CSZ exhibits similarities to other subduction zones around...
