| Title | Changes in Floodplain Inundation under Non-Stationary Hydrology for an Adjustable, Alluvial River Channel |
| Creator | Call, Bruce C. |
| Description | Predicting the frequency and aerial extent of flooding in river valleys is essential for infrastructure design, environmental management, and risk assessment. Such flooding occurs when the discharge of water within a river channel exceeds its maximum capacity and the extra water submerges the adjoining floodplain surface. The maximum capacity of a channel is controlled by its geometry, gradient, and frictional resistance. Conventional flood prediction methods rely on assumptions of unchanging... |
