you can find out if you live in a flood zone by using the fema interactive flood map. you can type in an address and check the map to see what kind of flood risk matches. special flood hazard areas are shaded zones that begin with a or v. non-special flood hazard areas are moderate...

Only 20% of the total research area was included in the zone of moderate susceptibility, which was 38.97 km2 in area. Figure 5. Final flood susceptibility map (FHIS). The very high and high flood susceptibility zones in the research area are generally distributed throughout the geography of...
Further steps in this research could benefit from a set of different applications, such as using urban watersheds with different characteristics in order to assess the indicator’s sensitivity and map eventual gaps in the formulation. Flood susceptibility analysis comprises a portion of the Flood ...
It can be observed that there is not a dominant suitability zone in this map. Each zone occupies an area of around 20%. The unsuitable and high classes of suitability cover 25.2, and 16.2% of the watershed, respectively. Figure 10. The FWS suitability maps produced by the WoE algorithm. ...
Ground hazards are a significant problem in the global economy, costing millions of dollars in damage each year. Railroad tracks are vulnerable to ground hazards like flooding since they traverse multiple terrains with complex environmental factors and d
The transition zone between freshwater and saltwater on two main tributaries (Tien and Hau Rivers) is narrow and tends to move upstream. As a result, the growth and survival of some small-sized fish species are significantly affected due to the dramatic reduction in freshwater volume. 3.1.5. ...
