The major merit of this comprehensive book is its focus on research and technical papers as well as case study applications in different regions worldwide that cover many topics and answer several scientific questions. The book chapters comprehensively and significantly highlight different scientific research disciplines related to wadi flash floods, including climatology, hydrological models, new monitoring techniques, remote sensing techniques, field investigations, international collaboration projects, risk assessment and mitigation, sedimentation and sediment transport, and groundwater quality and quantity assessment and management. In this book, the contributing authors (engineers, researchers, and professionals) introduce their recent scientific findings to develop suitable, applicable, and innovative tools for forecasting, mitigation, and water management as well as society development under seven main research themes as follows: Part 1. Wadi Flash Flood Challenges and Strategies Part 2. Hydrometeorology and Climate Changes Part 3. Rainfall–Runoff Modeling and Approaches Part 4. Disaster Risk Reduction and Mitigation Part 5. Reservoir Sedimentation and Sediment Yield Part 6. Groundwater Management Part 7. Application and Case Studies The book includes selected high-quality papers from five series of the International Symposium on Flash Floods in Wadi Systems (ISFF) that were held in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2020 in Japan, Egypt, Oman, Morocco, and Japan, respectively. These collections of chapters could provide valuable guidance and scientific content not only for academics, researchers, and students but also for decision-makers in the MENA region and worldwide.Natural Disaster Science and Mitigation Engineering: DPRI ReportsNatural disastersbicsscHydrology & the hydrospherebicsscClimate changebicsscSoil science, sedimentologybicsscHydrometeorology and Climate ChangeAdvances in Understanding Flood Modelling and ForecastingData Challenges: Monitoring, Analysis, and SharingReservoir Sedimentation and Sediment YieldSurface Runoff and Groundwater ManagementSocial and Environmental AspectsFlash Flood Mitigation Measures and Warning SystemsFlash Flood Risk at UNESCO World Heritage Sites (WHS)Open AccessNatural disastersHydrology & the hydrosphereClimate changeSoil science, sedimentologyNAT023000SCI026000SCI081000SCI091000SCI092000bisacshSumi Tetsuya1235918Kantoush Sameh A1235919Saber Mohamed1235920AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910502667703321Wadi Flash Floods2870260UNINA
