These phenomena are dramatically impacting ordinary life and the economy. Research and technology offer a new strategy to quantify and predict such phenomena and also mitigate the impact of flooding. In particular, the growing computational power is offering new strategies for a more detailed description of the flooding over large scales. This book offers an overview of the most recent outcomes of the research on this argument.History of engineering & technologybicsscclimate changeflood hazardshigh-resolution AGCMinundation analysisLower Mekong river basindata assimilationensemble Kalman filterflood inundation mapsNational Water Model (NWM)countermeasuresflood impactsMetro Colombo canal systemColombo city, Sri Lankaurban floodsnear real-timeMekong Basinhydro-economicsocioeconomicdamage assessmenthydroinformaticsEU Floods Directiveflood risk managementextreme rainfallSCS-CN2D hydraulic modellingHEC-RASbuilding representationungauged streamsuncertaintyIDF curvesBayesian analysisNon-Stationary processopen-access remotely sensed dataflood mapping and modellingaltimetrysynthetic aperture radaroptical satelliteDigital Elevation Model (DEM)and transboundary floodsfloodremote sensingdata integrationRST-FLOODMODISVIIRSoptical dataflood mappingflood monitoringfloodplainsrivers dynamicsDEM-based methodsgeomorphologydata scarce environmentsDTMterrain analysishydraulic geometrylarge scale2D hydraulic modelingscaling in hydrologyHistory of engineering & technologyManfreda Salvatoreedt442705Samela CaterinaedtRefice AlbertoedtTramutoli ValerioedtNardi FernandoedtManfreda SalvatoreothSamela CaterinaothRefice AlbertoothTramutoli ValerioothNardi FernandoothBOOK9910557296303321Advances in Large Scale Flood Monitoring and Detection3026248UNINA
