Observations of desert flood bores

Observations of desert flood bores
The data show that the flood bore speed depends on the channel geometry and the dryness of the bed.

Stochastic trigger model for flood peaks. 2. Application of the model to the flood peaks of Goksu-Karahacili

The hydrology and long-term geomorphic significance of a flash flood in the Cairngorm mountains, Scotland
This paper assesses the flood's immediate geomorphic impact as well as its longer term geomorphic significance in terms of slope and valley-floor development. The hydrometeorological characteristics of the flood are reconstructed and placed
in the context of the catchment's flood history. In magnitude frequency terms, the dominant geomorphic processes in this environment are floods which occur several times a century.

Application of climatic divisional data to flood interpretations : an example from Louisiana
The East Central climate division of Louisiana is used as a case study to evaluate relationships between divisional climate data and the 15 largest flood events on each of seven rivers during a 25-year period. Monthly precipitation and moisture
surplus (a waterbudget component) are correlated with number of rivers in flood within the division.

Flood hydrology and geomorphic effectiveness in the central Appalachians
This paper compares hydrologic records and geomorphic effects of several historic floods in the central Appalachians. The 1985 flood is briefly described and the A. explores the question of how and why the geomorphic impacts of this event differed

Paleohydrologic techniques used to define the spatial occurrence of floods
This paper describes paleohydrologic techniques that can be used to improve the understanding of flood hydrometeorology. These techniques are applied to two examples from Colorado.

Geomorphological effects of catastrophic flooding on a small subtropical estuary
This paper focusses on the Mgeni Estuary and records and interprets the impact of the flood on estuarine channel morphology and bottom sediment distribution. The effects on the adjacent littoral and nearshore zones are briefly considered.

Operational control modeling for land use development of flood estimated areas in small scale basins
This study discusses a few points about the comprehensive flood control system. Then it evaluates the feasable area in several watersheds by using dynamic quantitative models. Two modelings are proposed : the system Dynamics Modeling for an adaptive

The human component in flood warning and flood response system in Water and agriculture.

Az arvizek gyakorisaganak okai es annak tényezoi a Tisza virzrendszerében. (Reasons of frequency of floods and their factors in the water systems of the Tisza river)
Floods are more and more frequent on rivers of the Carpathian Basin, too. It can be traced back to the changes in the dynamism of geomorphic processes due to human activity, modification of runoff due to alterations in vegetation, river regulations
and constructions. Proposals are made to reduce sedimentation in channels in order to alleviate flood hazard. (DLO).

The effect of certain restrictions imposed on the interarrival times of flood events on the Poisson distribution used for modeling flood counts

Estimation of low return period floods

Relationship between alluvial soils and flooding in the piedmont lowland of south eastern Pennsylvania

The effect of urbanization on flood magnitude and frequency in Man's impact on the hydrological cycle in the United Kingdom.

Flood dynamics of a concrete-lined, urban stream in Kansas City, Missouri
Channel geometry, slope, and floodwater elevations were determined in the field for segments of the concrete-lined section of Brush Creek for a flood event that occurred on September 18, 1986. Discharge was computed by indirect methods and compared
