A methodology is presented for extracting topographic, topologic, and hydrologic information, from the digital spatial data of a hydrologic system, for hydrologic modeling with HMS. Methods for stream and watershed delineation from digital elevation models are presented. After vectorizing the raster-based stream segments and watersheds, navigation fields are added to their tables to support top...

Flash floods cause great harm to people’s lives and property safety. Rainfall is one of the main causes flash in small watersheds. The uncertainty rainfall events results inconsistency between traditional single pattern actual process, which poses a challenge for early warning forecasting floods. To carry out effective flood forecasting, this paper proposes novel by coupling total peak intensit...

The paper discusses how the well known USACE HEC models, RAS and HMS, are fully integrated within the decision support system of the Romagna River Basins in order to predict flood effects. The models are fully available from the web and cope with such a variety of problems as rainfall-runoff modeling, river and civil works hydraulics, and the mapping of hydraulic hazard. The paper illustrates t...

The study aimed to determine the impact of sound land use management to the runoff in Kabuntalan, Maguindanao in Tamontaka river basin. This was done through simulation and the comparison of the three land cover scenarios such as 2015 land cover, 2025 projected land cover and desired land use to determine its difference in terms of runoff. Hydrologic Engineering Center-Hydrologic Modeling Syste...

Abstract. Floods are among the most destructive natural hazards in world, posing numerous risks to societies and economies globally. Accurately understanding modeling floods driven by extreme rainfall events has long been a challenging task domains of hydrologic science engineering. Unusual catchment responses flooding cause great difficulty predicting variability magnitude floods, as well prop...
