The Gravelius index can therefore be calculated using Equation (1), being a dimensionless parameter and characterizing the watershed as flood-prone the closer it is to 1 [16]. KC=P/2×π×A−−−−−√KC=P/2×π×A (1) where: P = Perimeter of the watershed, km; A = ...
Risk can be defined as the relationship between the likelihood of a hazard causing a potential disaster and its consequences. This study aims to assess the likelihood that a new industrial region, located in the state of São Paulo (Brazil), will be flooded, causing the disruption of the mo...
