Flood data from the mid-Holocene Thermal Maximum may help improve flood frequency model-based estimates of extreme floods by minimizing risk associated with flood “unknown unknowns.” Introduction Globally, dams or other structures regulate most large rivers (>1000 km in length) (Grill et al., ...
Urban Floods in Lowlands—Levee Systems, Unplanned Urban Growth and River Restoration Alternative: A Case Study in Brazil The development of cities has always had a very close relation with water. However, cities directly impact land use patterns and greatly change natural lan... M Miguez,A Ve...

The soils in Rattlesnake Hills are predominantly silt loam, finer than the sandy compositions found elsewhere in the Columbia Valley. These soils are remnants from the extensive Missoula floods of the last Ice Age that shaped much of the landscape in the Columbia Basin before flowing south toward...
We identified major flood driver in diverse topography using global datasets.PERSIANN-CDR estimates is relatively more accurate in the selected study basins.Rainfall is likely to be the major cause of flooding in MRB and BRB.Land use change is likely to be the major cause of flooding in MLSB....
efforts after the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. Catastrophic winds and rain hit the southeast, including the Carolinas, causing widespread damage and historic flooding. Roads were destroyed by the floods, and landslides left entire commun...
increase the risks of existing hydro-climatic extreme impacts. Texas had several record-breaking floods in 2015, 2016, and 2017. The 2015 flood, even alone, has caused an estimated $2.6 billion in damage in Texas and Oklahoma (USGCRP,2018). ...
Overall, we saw a sizeable number of port scans, floods, probes and all kinds of web application exploitation attempts showing up daily at various peak hours. Fortunately, all of them were successfully identified for context (is this part of a training class or demonstration?) and contained (...
When this intense precipitation falls within the watersheds of urbanized/industrialized estuaries, the associated floods increase the risk of erosion and dispersal of legacy contaminated sediments (e.g. Santschi et al., 2001). If the urbanized/industrialized estuary has been subjected to elevated ...
"In some years,the lake experiences floods and droughts.Both of the situations cause food shortages in the cranes' living area," he said, "The Siberian crane is seriously endangered,we need to protect their living area-wetland so that we can protect them". According to the recent National ...
