the response of karoun basin in lumped and semi-distributed simulation were compared. also, the flood intensity of the sub-basins and the effects of physical parameters on flood hydrograph have been investigated. results demonstrated that there was no significant difference between the characteristics of flood hydrograph in lumped and semi-distributed simulation. also, results showed that the f...

due to increasing rate of flood risk throughout the world, including iran, it is necessary to identify and prioritize flood-contributing areas for flood control activities. in this study, a new approach on unit flood response method called “flood reduction method” was introduced which is applicable to prioritization of sub-basins for flood control activities. it was used to prioritize upstream ...

flood is one of the major natural disasters in iran, which is mostly, affected most parts of the country and caused hazards. therefore, identification of the area with high potential risk of flood occurrence is the main purpose in order to the flood control and reducing its damages. in this research the role of the flood routing in identification of the area with high potential flooding has inv...

forest cover is one of the most effective factors in reducing flooding in northern iran, so that in recent years the destruction, land use changing and uncontrolled harvesting of forest areas, has greatly increased the number and magnitude of floods. so far, there have been few studies on forest hydrology in iran, particularly the northern hyrcanian forests. this study examines the impact of a ...

watershed is regarded as a very complex system of natural, social, economic and ecological dimensions and like any similar systems, exploitation of its resources requires a comprehensive and coordinated planning and management. given the importance of watershed management projects for the development and management of natural resources, the enhancement of the efficiency of these activities is e...
