Land use/cover change effects on floods with different return periods: a case study of Beijing, China

Yueling WANG, Xiaoliu YANG

Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering 2013, Volume 7, Issue 5, Pages 769-776 doi: 10.1007/s11783-013-0542-z

Abstract: analysis, hydraulic modeling and statistical methods was applied to quantify the effect of LUCC on floodsThe study took Beijing as an example and analyzed five specific floods with return periods of 20-yearBeijing experienced unprecedented LUCC; 2) LUCC can affect inundation extent and flood arrival time, and floodswith longer return periods are more influenced; 3) LUCC can affect maximum water depth and floods withcities having experienced rapid expansion during recent decades in China are in danger of more serious floods

Dams and Floods

F. Lempérière

Engineering 2017, Volume 3, Issue 1, Pages 144-149 doi: 10.1016/J.ENG.2017.01.018

Abstract:

The possible mitigation of floods by dams and the risk to dams from floods are key problems.Accidents from floods are analyzed according to the dam’s height, storage, dam material, and spillway
