Identifying areas susceptible to flooding is important for developing appropriate watershed management policies. As such, the goal of the present study was to develop an integrated framework for flood susceptibility assessment in data-scarce regions, using data from the Haraz watershed in Iran. Flood-influencing indices best suited to the identification of areas particularly prone to flooding were selected. The decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) approach was used to investigate the interdependence among criteria and to develop a network structure representative of the problem. The relative importance of different flood-influencing factors was determined using the analytical network process (ANP). A flood susceptibility map was produced using weights obtained through the ANP and fuzzy-value function (FVF) and validated using 72 available flood locations where flooding occurred between 2006 and 2018. After validating the results, fuzzy theory served to better delineate the flood susceptibility scores among the region’s sub-watersheds. Incorporating the DEMATEL-ANP approach with FVF yielded an accuracy of 89.1%, as was assessed through the area under the curve (AUC) of a receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. The results indicated that the strongest flood-influencing (occurrence/nonoccurrence) factors were elevation, land use, soil texture, and frequency of heavy rainstorms. The fuzzy theory showed sub-watershed C1 to be highly susceptible to flooding, and thus, most in need of flood management.

Different locations in Egypt are vulnerable to the hazards of flash floods, especially in Upper Egypt. Throughout history, Egypt witnessed a series of events of flash floods that lead to mortality, damages, and economic losses. The intensity and frequency of flash floods in Egypt vary from year to year according to a number of hydrological and climatological variables. Although several previous flash floods studies have been conducted in Egypt, studies on the governorate of Asyut are still limited. This study integrates the physical and social parameters in order to assess the vulnerability to flash floods. The objectives of this study are to shed light on flash floods in the study area, develop a vulnerability model to determine the regions vulnerable to the impacts of flash floods, and propose a flash flood alert system in the governorate of Asyut in Egypt to mitigate the impacts of flash floods and to avoid the loss of life and property. The AHP (analytical hierarchy process) is used for assigning the optimal criterion weight of the considered vulnerability parameters based on the responses of eight expert respondents to an online Google forms questionnaire. The highest weighted flash floods causative parameters are population density (27.4%), precipitation (22.1%), total population (16.4%), and elevation (10.2%), respectively. The results reveal that Asyut is one of the Egyptian governorates pro ne to flash floods’ impacts, especially in Dayrut, Al-Qusiyah, and Abnub, urban districts. The findings of this study are expected to be useful to policymakers and responsible authorities for better disaster risk management and for dealing with the flash floods events in the future.

Flood depth mapping in street photos with image processing and deep neural networks / Bahareh Alizadeh Kharazi in Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, vol 88 (July 2021)

In addition to the high cost of mitigation and damage to property, floods make roads impassable and hamper community evacuation, movement of goods and services, and rescue missions. Knowing the depth of floodwater is critical to the success of response and recovery operations that follow. However, flood mapping especially in urban areas using traditional methods such as remote sensing and digital elevation models (DEMs) yields large errors due to reshaped surface topography and microtopographic variations combined with vegetation bias. This paper presents a deep neural network approach to detect submerged stop signs in photos taken from flooded roads and intersections, coupled with Canny edge detection and probabilistic Hough transform to calculate pole length and estimate floodwater depth. Additionally, a tilt correction technique is implemented to address the problem of sideways tilt in visual analysis of submerged stop signs. An in-house dataset, named BluPix 2020.1 consisting of paired web-mined photos of submerged stop signs across 10 FEMA regions (for U.S. locations) and Canada is used to evaluate the models. Overall, pole length is estimated with an RMSE of 17.43 and 8.61 in. in pre- and post-flood photos, respectively, leading to a mean absolute error of 12.63 in. in floodwater depth estimation. Findings of this research are sought to equip jurisdictions, local governments, and citizens in flood-prone regions with a simple, reliable, and scalable solution that can provide (near-) real time estimation of floodwater depth in their surroundings.

SNR-based water height retrieval in rivers: Application to high amplitude asymmetric tides in the Garonne river / Pierre Zeiger in Remote sensing, vol 13 n° 9 (May-1 2021)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > vol 13 n° 9 (May-1 2021) . - n° 1856 Titre : SNR-based water height retrieval in rivers: Application to high amplitude asymmetric tides in the Garonne river Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Pierre Zeiger, Auteur ; Frédéric Frappart, Auteur ; José Darrozes, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 1856 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] crue [Termes IGN] filtrage du bruit [Termes IGN] Garonne (bassin) [Termes IGN] interférence [Termes IGN] marée océanique [Termes IGN] modèle d'inversion [Termes IGN] rapport signal sur bruit [Termes IGN] réflectométrie par GNSS [Termes IGN] série temporelle [Termes IGN] surveillance hydrologique Résumé : (auteur) Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) time series acquired by a geodetic antenna were analyzed to retrieve water heights during asymmetric tides on a narrow river using the Interference Pattern Technique (IPT) from Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R). The dynamic SNR method was selected because the elevation rate of the reflecting surface during rising tides is high in the Garonne River with macro tidal conditions. A new process was developed to filter out the noise introduced by the environmental conditions on the reflected signal due to the narrowness of the river compared to the size of the Fresnel areas, the presence of vegetation on the river banks, and the presence of boats causing multiple reflections. This process involved the removal of multipeaks in the Lomb-Scargle Periodogram (LSP) output and an iterative least square estimation (LSE) of the output heights. Evaluation of the results was performed against pressure-derived water heights. The best results were obtained using all GNSS bands (L1, L2, and L5) simultaneously: R = 0.99, ubRMSD = 0.31 m. We showed that the quality of the retrieved heights was consistent, whatever the vertical velocity of the reflecting surface, and was highly dependent on the number of satellites visible. The sampling period of our solution was 1 min with a 5-min moving window, and no tide models or fit were used in the inversion process. This highlights the potential of the dynamic SNR method to detect and monitor extreme events with GNSS-R, including those affecting inland waters such as flash floods.

An improved rainfall-threshold approach for robust prediction and warning of flood and flash flood hazards / Geraldo Moura Ramos Filho in Natural Hazards, Vol 105 n° 3 (February 2021)

The improvements involve the use of two tolerance levels and the delineating of an intermediate threshold by incorporating an exponential curve that relates rainfall intensity and Antecedent Precipitation Index (API). The application of the tolerance levels presents an average increase of 14% in the Probability of Detection (POD) of flood and flash flood occurrences above the upper threshold. Moreover, a considerable exclusion (63%) of non-occurrences of floods and flash floods in between the two thresholds significantly reduce the number of false alarms. The intermediate threshold using the exponential curves also exhibits improvements for almost all time steps of both hydrological hazards, with the best results found for floods correlating 8-h peak intensity and 8 days API, with POD and Positive Predictive Value (PPV) values equal to 81% and 82%, respectively. This study provides strong indications that the new proposed rainfall threshold-based approach can help reduce the uncertainties in predicting the occurrences of floods and flash floods.
