Analysis of Flood Disaster Management in Batang Merao River at Sungai Penuh Regional Disaster Management Agency. Flooding is an event where land which is usually dry (not swampy areas) becomes inundated by water, this is caused by high rainfall and topographic conditions in the form of lowlands to sunken areas. In addition, the occurrence of flooding can also be caused by runoff which overflows and its volume exceeds the drainage capacity of the drainage system or river flow system. The occurrence of flood disasters is also caused by the low ability of soil infiltration, so that the soil is no longer able to absorb water. Flooding can occur due to rising water levels due to rainfall above normal, changes in temperature, embankments / dams that break, fast melting snow, obstructed water flow in other places. The purpose of this research is to find out how the Flood Disaster Management in Batang Merao River in Sungai Penuh City Regional Disaster Management Agency. This study uses a qualitative approach that examines an object of research by studying in its entirety and in depth rather than looking at the relationship of two or more variables, where the results of the study will be processed based on the interpretive researcher and described in a descriptive form. Data obtained through field interviews with 7 informants namely 1 key informant and 6 ordinary informants. Flood mitigation consists of prevention and mitigation, preparedness, emergency response and rehabilitation and reconstruction. Based on the existing work program, all activities have been carried out by the Sungai Penuh City Regional Disaster Management Agency in flood mitigation in Sungai Merao River Sungai Penuh which is guided by Law Number 24 Year 2007.

Stormwater drainage and urban flooding are the popular issues in policy agendas and academia. Although the research on these title increases steadily an integrated review on stormwater drainage and urban flood with a focus on pluvial flooding has yet to be produced. This paper presents a critical review on stormwater drainage and urban flood based on 78 selected journal papers published over the period of 1990 to 2018. The review focus on pluvial flooding to relate urban stormwater drainage management and urban flood disaster management and to show the links between the two. The methods taken to manage urban stormwater drainage and urban flooding as well as the complexity of achieving a comprehensive urban flood disaster management are evaluated and discussed. To better understand the concepts behind urban flood and improve the urban flood risk management strategies, recommendation of future research directions are also provided.

The argument for natural flood management in the UK has strengthened in recent years with increasing awareness of the potential benefits gained from upstream interventions (especially improvements in water quality, public amenities and biodiversity). This study aims to develop an understanding of another potential benefit—interventions promoting free discharge at downstream urban drainage outfalls by moderating water levels in receiving watercourses. A novel, coupled model (linking dynamic TOPMODEL, HEC-RAS and Infoworks ICM) is calibrated for the Asker catchment in Dorset, England. This predominantly rural watershed drains to the town of Bridport, frequently submerging a surface drainage outfall in a nearby housing estate. Two forms of upstream, catchment-scale intervention (hillslope tree planting and in-channel large woody debris) are modelled to understand their impacts on the functioning of the drainage network during both the calibration period and a range of design storms. The results indicate that interventions have the greatest positive impact during frequent events. For example, during a storm with a 10% annual exceedance probability (AEP), upstream NFM could reduce outfall inundation by up to 3.75 h and remove any surcharging of flow within the drainage system in Bridport. In more severe storms, the results suggest interventions could slightly prolong the time the outfall was submerged. However, by slowing the wider catchment's response during the 3.3% AEP storm, upstream interventions allow more water to escape the urban drainage system and reduce the maximum surface flooding extent within the housing estate by 35%. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Urban flood resilience’.

From the results of the author's research entitled Performance of the Regional Disaster Management Agency in Flood Disaster Management in Tebo Regency (Case Study of BPBD in Tebo Regency) as follows: Government Efforts of the Regional Disaster Management Agency in tackling Floods. Socialization Preparing for flooding This socialization was carried out for the people of the Tebo Regency Government to better know how to deal with flooding in the village. So that when the flood disaster comes the people are not surprised. Post Flood Action One of the impacts of the disaster on the declining quality of life of the population can be seen from various public health problems that occur. Disasters that are followed by displacement have the potential to cause health problems that are actually preceded by problems in other fields/sectors. Constraints faced by the government of the Tebo Regency Government in overcoming the flood disaster in Tebo Regency. Lack of funds. Funds are used in socialization activities carried out by the Government of Tebo Regency, especially BPBD KAbebo District. Because in this socialization activity requires presenters and consumption for guests and the community. But the Tebo Regency Government lacked funds in this matter. Lack of community awareness. The lack of awareness here means that in the socialization activities carried out by the Tebo Regency Government, not many people attend. Though in this socialization do is for their own interests. Not many people realize that this is important.AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan untuk melihat upaya yang dilakukan oleh stakeholder tertentu dalam menangani bencana banjir. Banjir adalah ancaman musiman yang terjadi apabila meluapnya tubuh air dari saluran yang ada dan menggenangi wilayah sekitarnya.

In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift in research from ‘top-down’ directives to ‘bottom-up’ planning. Thus, there has been a change from imposing strategies to a participatory approach by indigenous people. This study uses the participatory approach to flood disaster management in Thohoyandou and its environs. The aim of this study is twofold: first, to understand the perception of communities towards floods hazards; and second, to probe how communities respond to flood hazards and how this knowledge can be used in the planning and management of future disasters. In order to achieve these objectives, participatory rural appraisal (PRA), interviews and observation were used as data collection techniques. The study found that there was consensus among the participants that flooding is a natural process, but human activities enhance the risks of flooding. Human activities that were found to be the causes of flood included clearance of vegetation, cultivation in steep slope areas, the effect of relief, urbanisation, poor designs and maintenance of drainage system and settlement in inadequate areas. The study found that local communities did not cope when there was flooding. However, they suggested strategies that should be used to cope with future flood hazards.

Endemic freshwater teleosts were collected from a portion of the Navosota River drainage system which had been inadvertently contaminated with arsenic wastes from a firm manufacturing arsenical pesticides and herbicides. At the time of collection these fish were exposed to a concentration of 13.6 ppm arsenic in the water; levels ranged from 1.0 to 20.0 ppm during the four-month period prior. Scale annuli counts and prior water analyses indicated that these fish had been exposed for a lifetime. Neutron activation data showed that Lepomis cyanellus (green sunfish) had accumulated from 6.1 to 64.2 ppm arsenic in the liver, which is the major detoxification organ in arsenic poisoning. Examination of livers for ultrastructural changes revealed the presence of electron dense bodies and large numbers of autophagic vacuoles (AV) and necrotic bodies (NB) (1), as previously observed in this same species following laboratory exposures to sodium arsenate (2). In addition, abnormal lysosomes (AL), necrotic areas (NA), proliferated rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), and fibrous bodies (FB) were observed. In order to assess whether the extent of these cellular changes was related to the concentration of arsenic in the liver, stereological measurements of the volume and surface densities of changes were compared with levels of arsenic in the livers of fish from both Municipal Lake and an area known to contain no detectable level of arsenic.

Combined measurements of meltwater discharge from the portal and of water level in a borehole drilled to the bed of Findelengletscher, Switzerland, were obtained during the later part of the 1993 ablation season. A severe storm, lasting from 22 through 24 September, produced at least 130 mm of precipitation over the glacier, largely as rain. The combined hydrological records indicate periods during which the basal drainage system became constricted and water storage in the glacier increased, as well as phases of channel growth. During the storm, water pressure generally increased as water backed up in the drainage network. Abrupt, temporary falls in borehole water level were accompanied by pulses in portal discharge. On 24 September, whilst borehole water level continued to rise, water started to escape under pressure with a resultant increase in discharge. As the drainage network expanded, a large amount of debris was flushed from a wide area of the bed. Progressive growth in channel capacity as discharge increased enabled stored water to drain and borehole water level to fall rapidly. Possible relationships between observed borehole water levels and water pressures in subglacial channels are influenced by hydraulic conditions at the base of the hole, distance between the hole and a channel, and the nature of the substrate.
