The lacks of hydrograph data in the field has become the drawback of the hydraulic structure planning. However, such a conditional deficiency in particular, has urgently placed the Synthetic Unit Hydrograph (SUH) models to be very great utility. The Synthetic Unit Hydrograph (SUH) is a popular model that is used in many water resources designs especially in design flood analysis in ungagged watershed. One of the SUH that is usually used in Indonesia is Nakayasu SUH. This model is depended on the α parameter that is influencing the unit hydrograph ordinate and time base. This research intends to build a model of α parameter that is as the characteristic factor of part of watersheds in Indonesia. The methodology consists of observed unit hydrograph analysis for obtaining the α parameter in each watershed, to collect the characteristic data in each watershed, and then to formulate the α parameter model that is as the function of watershed characteristic. The result is formulation model of α that can be used to analyze the design flood in the watershed in Indonesia

For Engineers involved in planning and construction of water resources building, hydrology becomes very important data. In terms of planning stage in water resources especially waterworks, it is known that design flood discharge closed to field realistic conditions is often needed in order that a planned construction is able to control flood discharge. Several previous researches in choosing flood discharge selection method have diverse depending on observed watershed. One method in determining selected flood discharge by verification using Creager diagram, by comparing discharge calculation results of several Synthetic Unit Hydrograph (SUH) with infrastructure flood discharge (AWLR result) in observation point. This research aims to obtain  the most suitable synthetic unit hydrograph and close to analysis result of measured discharge frequency, and Creager diagram in Kelara watershed (DAS). Based on the calculation of design flood discharge according to rainfall data using synthetic unit hydrograph of Nakayasu, ITB I, ITB II, and SCS (HEC-HMS) as well as the calculation of design flood discharge according to collected data, it is concluded that the synthetic unit hydrograph method closest to design flood discharge with measured discharge rate and Q1000 rate of Creager diagram is SCS. Flood discharge rate obtained according to HSS SCS method using HEC-HMS  4.8 application in period of 2 years  is 658,40 m3/s, 25 years is 682,70 m3/s, 50 years is 787,00 m3/s, 100 years is 885,70 m3/det, and 1000 years is 1202,60 m3/s

Abstract: Various kinds of buildings in civil engineering require careful planning. For example, in the planning of a water building needed a method to calculate the design flood discharge before starting to plan the dimensions of the building to meet the effectiveness of the water structure. Design flood discharge can be determined using several hydrograph methods that have been used in water building planning in Indonesia. One of the popular hydrograph method used is the Nakayasu Synthetic Unit Hydrograph method. In this case, the design flood discharge is located in the Garang watershed, precisely in Semarang City, province of Central Java, using rainfall data for the past 16 years. Hydrological analysis is carried out first before determining the design flood discharge with a return period of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 50 years. The results of the design flood discharge using Nakayasu method respectively were 305,522 m3/s, 390,742 m3/s, 447,783 m3/s, 520,560 m3/s, and 574,912 m3/s.

<p align="center"><strong>Abstract.</strong></p><p>Floods always come suddenly and unexpectedly, and lots of people living in the flood-prone area can be the victims. As happened on February 2, 2020, a number of rice fields, roads, and houses belonging to the residents in the Parangjoho watershed, Eromoko District, Wonogiri, with 9.8-km river length and 32.59-km<sup>2</sup> area, was flooded due to heavy rain for some time which flushed the Eromoko area, therefore, the river flow could not accommodate the volume of water that entered and overflowed. This was what motivated researchers to calculate the design flood discharge to be able to carry out the flood control.</p><p>The methods of calculating the design flood discharge in the Parangjoho watershed used the Nakayasu Synthetic Unit Hydrograph (SUH) Method and the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) Method, using the rainfall data from the Bengawan Solo Central River Region at Parangjoho Station. The rainfall data used were from 2000 to 2019.</p>

Floods often occur in several regions in Indonesia. The problem is the flooding with its uncertain characteristics is one of the environmental problems that has not been handled optimally. The method of converting rain data into discharge data for flood analysis has been widely presented in previous studies. The methods used to analyze flood discharge also vary, starting from rational, empirical, statistical models to the unit hydrograph model. This research aims to determine the flood discharge design for return periods 2, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, and 100 years in Tojo watershed, Tojo Una-una Regency using the synthetic unit hydrograph method of ITB-1. Research methods are data collection and data analysis. Data collection was carried out at several agencies and collecting from online sources. Results of this research design flood discharge that was analyzed by synthetic unit hydrograph of ITB-1 method. The maximum design flood discharge at Tojo watershed are 82.375m3/s for a 2-year, 98.21 m3/s for a 5-year, 104.77 m3/s for a 10-year, 111.83 m3/s for a 20-year, 113.3 m3/s for a 25-year, 118.87 m3/s for a 50-year, 123.86 m3/s for a 100-year return period

&lt;p&gt;In the past 60 years, climate changes and underlying surface of the watershed have affected the structure and characteristics of water resources to a different degree It is of great significance to investigate main drivers of streamflow change for development, utilization and planning management of water resources in river basins. In this study, the Huangshui Basin, a typical tributary of the upper Yellow River, is used as the research area. Based on the Budyko hypothesis, streamflow and meteorological data from 1958-2017 are used to quantitatively assess the relative contributions of changes in climate and watershed characteristic to streamflow change in research area. The results show that: the streamflow of Huangshui Basin shows an insignificant decreasing trend; the sensitivity coefficients of streamflow to precipitation, potential evapotranspiration and watershed characteristic parameter are 0.5502, -0.1055, and 183.2007, respectively. That is, an increase in precipitation by 1 unit will induce an increase of 0.5502 units in streamflow, and an increase in potential evapotranspiration by 1 unit will induce a decrease of 0.1055 units in streamflow, and an increase in the watershed characteristic parameter by 1 unit will induce a decrease of 183.2007 units in streamflow. Compared with the reference period (1958-1993), the streamflow decreased by 20.48mm (13.59%) during the change period (1994-2017), which can be attribution to watershed characteristic changes (accounting for 73.64%) and climate change (accounting for 24.48%). Watershed characteristic changes exert a dominant influence upon the reduction of streamflow in the Huangshui Basin.&lt;/p&gt;

In the urban area, flooding becomes the most common disaster that has not been resolved until today. The utilization of river border area into housing and lack of absorption area becomes the trigger factor of urban flooding, as what is happening around Way Halim River on Seroja street. In this area, floods often happen during the rainy season, with the latest events recorded on January 21st, 2021. Analysis of flood intensities and discharges can be parameters for the decision-making of flood mitigation strategies. This study aims to analyze the flood discharges along Way Halim River, Seroja street by comparing the flood discharges resulting from three analysis methods of Synthetic Unit Hydrograph (SUH) including Gama I SUH, Nakayasu SUH, and Snyder SUH. Finally, suitable flood mitigation strategies were also proposed in this study based on the flood discharges and rain intensities. The results showed that Nakayasu SUH had the highest peak flood discharge than Snyder SUH and Gama I SUH. Based on the results of the investigation of land suitability; and analysis of rainfall intensities and flood discharges, the proposed flood mitigation in Seroja street is by installing biopore infiltration holes along Seroja street for storing water and reducing the risk of flooding in the area.
