Abstract:
The River Londalselva drains a part of the Søndre Folgefonni ice cap. On maps showing the topography of the basin, two potentially glacier-dammed lakes can be identified, the lakes of Blomsterskardvatn and Sauavatn. Four large floods occurred in the late summer or early autumn periods of the years 1938, 1944, 1948, and 1962, resulting in great damage to the farms in the settlement of Mosnes. After each of the earlier floods, river-protection work was carried out, but after the 1962 flood further protection efforts were considered too expensive and so the settlement was abandoned by its farmers in the mid-1960s. Originally, the floods were believed to result from the emptying of Blomsterskardvatn. However, field studies have revealed that in fact the floods actually orginated in Sauavatn. This paper suggests a possible flood-prevention measure, based on the construction of a 400 m long tunnel from Sauavatn, which would keep water levels low. The cost is estimated at approximately 5 million Norwegian kroner (NOK.) based on an exchange rate of 6.9 NOK = 1 $US in September 1988. The paper also stresses the importance of making proper hydrological investigations in other cases of flood.

Abstract:
Abstract The discussion of floods in this paper covers the section of the Odra River basin from its source down to the mouth of the Nysa Klodzka River and the section of the Vistula River basin down to the Krakow profile. The area of the upper part of Odra River basin is 13,455 km2 and the length of the river bed in this section is ca. 273.0 km. In the reach examined, the Vistula River is 184.8 km long and has a catchment area of approximately 8,101 km2. Geographical and environmental conditions in the upper part of the Vistula and Odra Rivers basins are conducive to floods both in the summer and winter seasons. The analyses conducted for the 19th and 20th centuries demonstrate that two main types of floods can be distinguished. Floods with a single flood wave peak occurred in the following years in the upper Odra River basin: 1813, 1831, 1879, 1889, 1890 and 1896, and on the Vistula River they were recorded in 1805, 1813, 1816, 1818, 1826, 1830, 1834, 1844 and 1845. In the 20th century, similar phenomena were recorded on the Odra River in 1903, 1909, 1911, 1915, 1925, 1960, 1970 and 1985, and on the Vistula River they occurred in 1903, 1908, 1925, 1931, 1934, 1939, 1948, 1951, 1970, 1972, 1991, 1996, 1997 and 1999. The second category includes floods with two, three or more flood wave peaks. These are caused by successive episodes of high rainfall separated by dry periods that last for a few days, a fortnight or even several weeks. Such floods occurred on the upper Odra River in 1847, 1854, 1880, 1888, 1892, 1897 and 1899; while on the Vistula River only two (1839 and 1843) floods featured two flood wave peaks. In the 20th century on the upper Odra River, floods of this type occurred in 1902, 1926, 1939, 1940, 1972, 1977 and 1997; on the upper Vistula River, they were recorded in 1906, 1915, 1919, 1920, 1940, 1958, 1960 and 1987.

Abstract:
Data from prehistoric fluvial deposits can be used to extend the flood history of a river valley beyond historical records, thus increasing our understanding of variability in large, low-frequency flood events and providing a valuable means for paleoenvironmental reconstruction. We have applied this form of analysis to fluvial deposits from an archaeological site on the upper Columbia River in the state of Washington dating from 120 A.D.∗ to 1948 A.D. It was our expectation that, had flood frequencies remained constant, sedimentation event frequency would conform to an exponential function derived from the Wolman and Leopold model of vertical floodplain accretion. Our findings deviate from this model, showing that flood frequencies comparable to those of the twentieth century existed prior to 1020 A.D.∗ and after 1390 A.D.∗ Large floods were three to four times more common during the intervening centuries. On the basis of field evidence, we can rule out changing channel geometry, leaving climatic conditions as the most probable factors controlling this variation in flood frequency.

Abstract:
The present study analyzed major floods and tropical cyclones (TCs) over Bangladesh on El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) timescales. The geographical location, low and almost flat topography have introduced Bangladesh as one of the most vulnerable countries of the world. Bangladesh is highly vulnerable to the extreme hazard events like floods and cyclones which are impacted by ENSO. ENSO is mainly a tropical event, but its impact is global. El Niño (La Niña) represents the warm (cold) phase of the ENSO cycle. Rainfall and cyclonic disturbances data have been used for the period of 70 years (1948–2017) and compared with the corresponding observations of the Southern Oscillation Index. Result shows that major flood events occurred during the monsoon period, and most of them are during the La Niña condition, consistent with the historical archives of flood events in Bangladesh. Synoptic conditions of these events are well matched during La Niña condition. On the other hand, the major TC cases are in the period of either pre-monsoon or post-monsoon season. The pre-monsoon cases are under neutral (developing La Niña) or El Niño and the post-monsoon cases are under La Niña, consistent with climatology studies that La Niña is favorable to have more intense TCs over the Bay of Bengal.

Abstract:
Abstract Sea level rise (SLR) can negatively affect the hydrology of coastal watersheds. However, the relevant information is incomplete and insufficient in existing literature. The objective of this study is to present a modeling approach to predict long-term effects of SLR on changes of flood peak, flood stage, and groundwater table with an assumption that the historical climate would reoccur in the future. The study was conducted for a typical coastal watershed in southeast USA. The results indicate that sea level had been rising at a rate of 4.21 mm yr−1 from 1948 to 1982 but at a faster rate of 5.16 mm yr−1 from 1983 to 2013. At such SLR rates and by 2113, the groundwater table beneath the eastern part of the watershed would be raised by 0.10 to 0.29 m, while the annual mean peak discharge and flood stage at the watershed outlet would be increased by 13.84 m3 s−1 (from 3.63 to 17.47 m3 s−1) and 0.92 m (from zero to 0.92 m), respectively. The other parts of the watershed would be relatively less affected by SLR. For coastal watersheds, SLR will probably raise the groundwater table, and increase the magnitude and occurrence of peak discharge and flood stage.

Abstract:
In this article, I analyze a painting by Modoc/Klamath artist Peggy Ball through a Native feminist reading methodology. The painting, Vanport, is named after a city that disappeared in a flood in 1948. The artist survived that flood, and displacement as did thousands of others. The painting is a rememory map of dislocations and hauntings and disappearances. The painting remaps gentrified dislocations, telling stories that focus on the relationship of the present to the past and the past to the future. The painting itself is a Native feminist practice. The travel to places gone, to places that will reappear again; by people gone as well as by people presently alive; into times that existed, that never existed, that will exist again; to times made contemporaneous by time traveling dogs; with people co-present through desire—at the heart of all this time travel is recognition and survivance.

Abstract:
By using GIS tools, it is possible to improve the preview of hydrological processes such as evapotranspiration, precipitation, flood and drought. In order to quantify drought, different type of drought indicators have been developed such as Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Reconnaissance Drought Index (RDI), Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) or Water Surplus Variability Index (WSVI). In this paper the precipitation-based SPI indicator was applied to the monthly precipitation data from Serbia during the period 1948-2012. The data were processed in the QuantumGIS software package. For the purpose of application in the monitoring of drought at the national level, a spatial presentation of meteorological drought was obtained.

Abstract:
The height of an overflow dam must be designed low enough to prevent the reservoir water level from exceeding a flood plain during flooding conditions. Because of this constraint, much of the available water storage area is wasted and the available pressure head for power generation will be less than maximum during normal conditions. Crest control gates alleviate this problem by providing a variable spillway height. The Flash Gate Board is a passive automatic crest control gate. Its purpose is to regulate flood water while providing increased water pressure for power generation or for additional water storage for a municipality. The governing equations for the Flash Gate Board system are derived and used to formulate models of the system. Computer simulations are used to examine the system response in a variety of operating conditions. The results of these simulations are presented and discussed. The results include an investigation which developed an optimum gate height to maximize the potential of the Flash Gate Board. An experimental model was developed to verify analytical results and to provide additional insight. Conclusions from the study, recommendations for future work, and modifications for a trouble-free design are discussed.

Abstract:
Extreme rainfall events and consequent floods are being observed more frequently in the Western Black Sea region in Turkey as climate changes. In this study, application of a flood early warning system is intended by using and calibrating a combined model system. A regional-scale hydro-meteorological model system, consisting of Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, NOAH land surface model and fully distributed NOAH-Hydro hydrologic models, is used for simulations of 25 heavy-rainfall and major flooding events observed in the Western Black Sea region between years 2000 and 2011. The performance of WRF model system in simulating precipitation is tested with 3-dimensional variational (3DVAR) data assimilation scheme. WRF-derived precipitation with and without data assimilation and Multi Precipitation Estimates (MPE) are used in NOAH-Hydro model to simulate streamflow for flood events. Statistical precipitation analyses show that WRF model with 3DVAR improved precipitation up to 12% with respect to no-assimilation. MPE algorithm generally underestimates rainfall and it also showed lower performance than WRF model with and without data assimilation. Depending on reliability of precipitation inputs, NOAH-Hydro model produces reasonable flood hydrographs both in structure and volume. After model calibration is performed using assimilated precipitation inputs in Bartin Basin, NOAH-Hydro model reduced the average error in streamflow by 23.24% and 53.57% with calibration for testing events. With calibrated parameters, NOAH-Hydro model forced by WRF non-assimilated precipitation input also reduced the error in streamflow but with lower rates (16.67% and 40.72%). With a proper model calibration and reliable precipitation inputs, hydrologic modeling system is capable of simulating flood events.

Abstract:
The Water Resources Development Act of 1986 has increased attention to the ability of flood control benefit assessment methods to serve the joint need of assessing the economic and financial feasibility of a project. The Contingent Value Method is identified as an alternative flood control benefit assessment method. The findings of a case study to test the potential for the Contingent Value Method to be used in future flood control benefit assessment studies is presented. An empirical analysis of willingness to pay offers is conducted to determine the importance of property and nonproperty considerations in willingness to pay is also presented. The study findings suggest that landowners are willing to pay for the property effects and the effects of flood control on the community at large. The study findings do not support a relationship between willingness to pay for flood control and the landowner's level of anxiety over the prospect of future flooding. The findings do suggest that the contingent value method has the potential to be applied to flood control. Prior to any such application, however, several survey design and implementation issues need to be addressed.

Full text
Abstract:
In 1879 Congress created the Mississippi River Commission (MRC) to develop and coordinate federal flood control policy for the Lower Mississippi River. Through 1927, that Commission clung stubbornly to a "levees-only" policy that was based on the mistaken belief that levees alone could be effective in controlling the flood waters of the Mississippi River. When the levees failed--and they occasionally did--the MRC responded by raising and strengthening the system but refused to adopt a more comprehensive program, one which would include outlets and reservoirs. Finally, a disastrous flood in 1927 forced the abandonment of levees-only and the adoption of a comprehensive plan for the Lower Mississippi River. Predictably, the MRC faced heavy criticism following the failure of its highly-touted levee system in 1927. While certainly the Commission was culpable, there was plenty of fault to go around and a plethora of mitigating circumstances. Developing a plan for achieving adequate flood control along the lower Mississippi River constituted what was probably the most difficult and complex engineering problem ever undertaken by the U. S. Government. Additionally, there were innumerable political and financial constraints that worked to shape MRC policy. This study will endeavor to tell the story of the MRC from its earliest origins through the landmark 1928 Flood Control Act, and, in the process, give evidence to the reality that the Commission did not function independently. As an organization, it relied upon outside forces for its membership, for its jurisdiction, and for the appropriations necessary to carry out its policies. Significantly, these forces were politically driven and did not always, or even often, share the MRC's priorities for the Lower Mississippi River. Even so, the MRC accomplished a great deal in its efforts to protect the Valley from moderate floods, to improve the navigability of the Mississippi River, and to expand significantly the body of knowledge available on the "Father of Waters."

Full text
Abstract:
What is happening on the dance floor at the gay and lesbian dance parties? What are lesbians and gay men doing when they dance? This thesis presents a project in performance research that takes as its locus on investigation the dance parties that have been produced annually by gay and lesbian organisations in Sydney since the early 1980s. In particular, it focuses on the largest of these dance parties, Mardi Gras Party and Sleaze Ball, during a period of research from 1994 to 1998. Harnessing these resources, the thesis aims at investigating how dance parties sustain an ongoing salience for gay men and lesbians in Sydney. On the basis of ethnographic research, performance documentation, and movement analysis, the investigation pursues an analytical trajectory across the making of dance parties within a subcultural scene, to the doing of dance parties as performance events, and then onto the dance floor as a site for performative practice. Responding to a persistent debate about straights at the parties, the anlayses register the salience of dancing as an etiquette of doing dance party as it is done, as a queer kinaesthesia sustained on the dance floor, and as an occasional community danced into existence. The thesis attests to the pertinence of analysing movement. It analyses the mobility of practice, rather than its textual residue; the kinaesthesia of performative identities, rather than their morphological contours; and the choregraphy of community, rather than its substantive contents. Recognising that queer theory too has an interest in movement, in proliferating metaphors for the mobility of queer identifications and desires, the thesis argues in conclusion that such metaphors represent imaginative flights of fancy to the extent that they fail to grasp the corporeality of queer kinaesthesia

Full text
Abstract:
The governments of Scotland and England have responded to the increase in flood risk by introducing legislation intended to manage present day flood risk and to avoid future flood risk. This thesis evaluates how the new policy regime has evolved and been implemented in Scotland and England, focusing particularly in Local Authorities, and using contrasts in rural and urban settings to reveal how the policy has had to be adapted to apply effectively in these different physical and administrative environments. Based on discourse theory and the institutionalisation features of policy networks, it is argued first that the new policy regime is subject to multiple interpretations and, second that policy change occurs as a result of the transformation of institutional practices of the multiple flood governance discourses by policy narratives in the policy process. The concept of the advocacy coalition framework is applied to reveal how contrasting local governance approaches result from continuous interactions between national policies and distinctive, local factors. These arguments are supported by the results of empirical research that examined policy change and local governance interpretation through textual analysis of relevant policy documents, interviews with key institutional stakeholders and participant observation of a local stakeholder meeting. Research findings reveal how the more pro-active local governance approaches serve as innovators in informing future national policies. This process stems from local interpretation of existing national policy through the mediating effects of distinctive local policy factors that result in the introduction of new policy ideas and actors. These ideas and the involvement of new actors are in turn transferred through revisions to national policies of flood risk governance. Consequently the policy mediating features of Local Authorities are manifest through first, the utility of policy narratives in driving national policy change and second, in shaping policies in local governance approaches.

Abstract:
The Nankai Trough is well known as the mega thrust earthquake generating tsunamis, with the interval of 100–150 years. The 1944 Tonankai and the 1946 Nankai earthquakes around the Nankai trough, each hypocenter was located off the Kii peninsula. Based on structural and simulation researches, we proposed and have been starting to deploy the dense ocean floor observatory network system around the Tonankai seismogenic zone, to monitor crustal activities using broadband seismometer, accelerometer and precise pressure gauges. The ocean floor network is significant ant important to monitor the crustal activities around mega-thrust earthquakes.

Abstract:
The Nankai Trough is well known as the mega thrust earthquake generating tsunamis, with the interval of 100–200 years. The 1944 Tonankai and the 1946 Nankai earthquakes around the Nankai trough, each hypocenter was located off the Kii peninsula. However, according to Prof. Okamura of KOCHI University, super mega thrust earthquakes such as Hoei earthquake (1707) and Hakuho earthquakes (684) are occurring with an interval of 300–400 years or 700 years. Based on structural research, observational research and simulation researches, we proposed and have been starting to deploy the dense ocean floor observatory network system around the Tonankai seismogenic zone, to monitor crustal activities using broadband seismometer, accelerometer and precise pressure gauges. The probability of next Tonankai earthquake recurrence is estimate as 60–70% (The Headquarters for Earthquake Research Promotion; http://www.jishin.go.jp/main/index-e.html). Therefore, the ocean floor network is significant ant important to monitor the crustal activities around mega-thrust earthquakes. In this paper, we explain the recent and detailed developing of this oceanfloor network system (DONET). Especially, the installation of sensors and improvement of ROV for the deploying system in the deep seafloor will be developed. Furthermore, the new project including observation simulation and mitigation researches of mega thrust earthquakes around the Nankai trough is starting as 5 years project (2008–20012). Especially, the Ocean floor network data is very important and powerful to progress the new project.
