RISComparison of PMP-Driven Probable Maximum Floods with Flood Magnitudes due to Increasingly Urbanized Catchment: The Case of American River Watershed
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ince historical (predam) data are traditionally the sole criterion for dam design, future (postdam) meteorological and hydrological variability due to land-use and land-cover change cannot be considered for assessing design ...
Toward a Methodology to Investigate the Downstream Flood Hazards on the American River due to Changes in Probable Maximum Flood due to Effects of Artificial Reservoir Size and Land-Use/Land-Cover Patterns
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecent research in mesoscale hydrology suggests that the size of the reservoirs and the land-use/land-cover (LULC) patterns near them impact the extreme weather [e.g., probable maximum flood (PMF)]. A key question was ...
Crossing the “Valley of Death”: Lessons Learned from Implementing an Operational Satellite-Based Flood Forecasting System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: a decade ago, a National Research Council (NRC) report popularized the term ?valley of death? to describe the region where research on weather satellites had struggled to reach maturity for societal applications. A similar ...
