The Intensity – duration (I-D) curves towards to a spatially distributed flood early warning tool (F-EWT)

(Corresponding) Feloni E., Baltas E.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

Attica region suffers from rainfall events of high intensity, inducing flash-floods and significant damages in the urbanized areas. This analysis concerns the determination of the maximum intensity-duration thresholds regarding flooding (F) or non-flooding (NF) regime, using the available...Read more

Hydrological and hydraulic modelling for a severe flood event in Sperchios River Basin

(Corresponding) Bournas A., Feloni E., Bertsiou M., Baltas E.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

A combined hydrological and hydraulic analysis is presented for an extreme flood event occurred on February 6, 2012 in Sperchios River Basin, located in Central Greece. This event caused the river’s overflow and, consequently, several damages to infrastructure and agricultural land. Sperchios River...Read more

Effect of the dependence structure and time irreversibility of streamflow in flood inundation mapping with focus on the long-term persistence behaviour

(Corresponding) Dimitriadis P., Iliopoulou T., Papanicolaou P., Koutsoyiannis D.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

The marginal structure of streamflow, with focus on the right tail behaviour, is considered as the main factor in flood risk assessment, while little is known on the effect of the temporal dependence structure and irreversibility of streamflow. Interestingly, the second-order dependence behaviour...Read more

Simulation of an urban flash flood: the 2017 flood event in Mandra, Attica

Handrinos S., (Corresponding) Bellos V., Sibetheros I.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

This study deals with the 2D flood simulation of an urban flash flood event that took place on November 15, 2017 in Mandra, Attica. The well-known hydrodynamic software HEC-RAS was used for the flood simulation. The model input was an ensemble of 100 hydrographs, derived from the simulation of the...Read more

Analysis of the hydrologic conditions during the flood event occurred in Mandra, Greece, on November 2017

(Corresponding) Feloni E., Theochari A., Skroufouta S., Bournas A., Baltas E.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

On November 15, 2017 a flash flood struck West Attica with intense effects in the settlement of Mandra, causing human losses as well as extensive material damages. The aim of this work is to examine this flood event from a hydrological perspective in order to highlight the diversity of estimations...Read more

Evaluating flooding impact to riverine bridges. The case of the Historical Bridge of Arta in Epirus, Greece

(Corresponding) Panagiotatou E., Mitsopoulos G., Stamou A.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

ABSTRACT Climate impacts are expected to intensify weather related flooding events that are the most common and damaging natural disaster. Riverine bridges are particularly prone to failure during floods and their disruption may impair significantly flood evacuation plans. Thus, in the design of...Read more

Development of flood risk maps using Remote Sensing Techniques in Cyprus

(Corresponding) Kountouri J., Mettas C., Evagorou E., Hadjimitsis D.

Topic:

Floods, droughts and water scarcity

Floods are the most devastating natural disasters and are likely to become more frequent, dominant, and severe due to climate change, population growth, urbanization, and other factors related to watersheds and human activities. A flood can be defined as a body of water that causes runoff to land...Read more
