根据第一段“When it comes to natural disasters, floods come first in the USA since they kill more people and destroy more properties each year than tornadoes, hurricanes, lightning and so on.(说到自然灾害,在美国,洪水排在第一位,因为每年洪水造成的死亡人数和财产损失比龙卷风、飓风、闪电等都要多...
Structures designed to concentrate flow for the benefit of navigation can result in higher flood stages and thus can undermine flood control efforts. Allowing floodplains to flood naturally, as much as possible, can have benefits not only for the ecosystem but also for managing floods to minimize...

While there is growing attention toward the changes in flood magnitude and frequency, little is known about the way climate change could impact flood duration. Here we focus on 378 streamgages across the eastern United States to develop statistical models that allow the description of the year-to...
