Updating hydrologic studies and the impact on hydraulic design
(Corresponding) DANIIL E., MICHAS S.
Topic:
Estimation and prediction under past and future conditions (climate, population, land use change)
Flood events causing damages, fatalities, trigger new flood protection studies. Updated hydrologic study conforming with recent develop¬ments is required. Implementation of 2007/60/EU Directive led to Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment and Flood Risk Management Plans, establishment of related...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
Estimating Flood Risk at town scale: the case of the 2017 flash flood in Mandra, Greece.

Topic:
Climpact: national network for climate change and its impacts
Effective flood management requires the priori assessment of the flood event, its consequences, and thus its risk, which give insight into what situations we expect and allow us to evaluate possible measures, including the implementation of an Early Warning System. In the present work, we briefly...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
ANALYSIS OF THE 0.1% AND 1% FLOODBANDS RELATING TO THE NV AREA OF THE CEAHLAU MASSIVE, THE CONFLUENCE SECTOR OF THE BISTRIȚA RIVER WITH HIS TRIBUTARY - BISTRICIORA RIVER
(Corresponding) Hutanu E., Linu-Stoilov V., Paveluc L., Stoleriu C., Mihu_Pintilie A., Grozavu A.
Topic:
Hydrology and water resources
The study aims to outline the flood potential of a mountainous area, in the context of simulating flooded areas, GIS techniques being essential in determining the spatial and probabilistic impact of this type of hydrological phenomena. The resulting modeling highlights the floodplains and the...Read more
Determining the Participation of Sub-Basins in Peak Discharge and Runoff Volume with HEC-GeoHMS Model
(Corresponding) Ahmadzadeh-Kaleybar F., Naeimi Hoshmand F.
Topic:
Hydrology and water resources
One of the most important measures in flood management projects is to investigate the participation of different sub-basins of a watershed in determining the various components of flood discharge from the basin. Due to the lack of hydrometric stations at the outlet of all sub-basins, achieving this...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
