The application of the polder system for flood control in DKI Jakarta has become a must for coastal areas, especially with the construction of sea dikes along the coast of Jakarta as a solution to anticipate tidal flooding. One thing to consider when using a polder system in flood control is how much pump capacity and reservoir are needed. To answer this quetions, a hydrological analysis has been carried out with several method approaches, starting from determining the rainfall design in the form of a depth duration frequency curve in 1 hour to 48 hours, and then applied area reduction factor (ARF) to corrected rainfall design. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) method are uses to calculated runoff or effective rainfall and then with the unit hydrograph by time area method to produce a runoff hydrograph. Based on this approach, the Sentiong Polder plan has been carried out with the result that the required pump capacity for a 25-year return period is 32 m3/s and 50 m3/s for a 100-year return period with a storage capacity used of 1,507,500 m3. If you want to reduce the pump capacity, it is necessary to increase the storage capacity.

This study aims to examine the flood propensity of the main watercourse of São Vicente drainage basin and, if relevant, to propose two methodologies to alleviate the impacts, i.e., detention basin sizing and riverbed roughness coefficient adjustment. Geomorphological data were obtained from the watershed characterization process and used through the SIG ArcGIS software for the flood propensity assessment and then for the calculation of the expected peak flow rate for a return period of 100 years through the Gumbel Distribution. Subsequently, the drainage capacity of the river mouth was verified using the Manning-Strickler equation, in order to establish whether the river mouth of the watershed has the capacity to drain the entire volume of rainwater in a severe flood event. In summary, it was possible to conclude that São Vicente’s watershed river mouth is not able to completely drain the rain flow for the established return period. Thus, its drainage capacity was guaranteed by modifying the walls and streambed roughness coefficient and by sizing the detention basin using the Dutch and the Simplified Triangular Hydrograph methods.

Abstract This research is based on flood conditions that often occur in lowland areas such as Jakarta and Semarang. The problem faced is that the notification and early detection of floods is often late, done manually so that it cannot be anticipated by areas downstream of the river. Therefore, it is very important to be able to develop an IoT-based early warning tool so that floods can be detected early in a fast, real time, and immediately anticipated in the upstream area of the river. This research method uses design methods and experiments carried out in the field and laboratory. This research will present a prototype of the FEDS (Floods Early Detection System), based on the Blynk application. The results showed that the calculation of planned flood discharge with a return period of 2, 5, 10, 25 and 50 years can provide an overview of the ability of an area to face the maximum possible rainfall. The FEDS prototype tool, with the Blynk application, can work well using a microcontroller, ultra sonic sensor, and a rainfall sensor. This system is suitable for use in the community to determine rain conditions and water level conditions used at river water level conditions, for early notification of floods.

A spillway is one of many important components of a dam, which is operated to prevent the dam from overtopping. Spillway with gate structures requires to have a good operation pattern by considering a minimum critical height and outflow discharge to prevent any flooding events in the downstream part of the spillway channel. The case study in this research is the Delingan Dam which has two ogee spillways, four main sluice gates and four additional sluice gates. Located in Karanganyar District, West Java, Delingan Dam is considered as a vast infrastructure which is potentially threatening if the spillway’s operation is not optimal. This study aims to analyze the spillway gate operations’ pattern of Delingan Dam in order to control the flooding event. The methodology used in this study is flood routing by utilizing several scenarios in order to obtain the optimal simulation results. Five scenarios that were simulated on the designated flood discharge have various combinations on the number of gates and their opening, as well as the time in which the operation started. The results show that the operation only using ogee spillway still meets the criteria for minimum critical height and maximum allowable discharge for return period of 25, 50, and 100 year.As the discharge with 1000 year return period, half of PMF, and PMF,the recommended operation is, foremost, to occupy the main gate in which results in the peak outflow discharge of 23.65 m3/s, 62.4 m3/s, and 140.9 m3/s, with the minimum critical height of 1.45 m, 1.41 m, and 1.35 m, respectively. However, this operation is not adequate for the half of PMF, and the PMF discharge, since the capacity in the spillway channel is estimated about 24.7 m3/s.Keywords: spillway, flood control, spillway gate operation, the delingan dam

The influence of climate change on the regional hydrological cycle has been an international scientific issue that has attracted more attention in recent decades due to its huge effects on drought and flood. It is essential to investigate the change of regional hydrological characteristics in the context of global warming for developing flood mitigation and water utilization strategies in the future. The purpose of this study is to carry out a comprehensive analysis of changes in future runoff and flood for the upper Huai River basin by combining future climate scenarios, hydrological model, and flood frequency analysis. The daily bias correction (DBC) statistical downscaling method is used to downscale the global climate model (GCM) outputs from the sixth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) and to generate future daily temperature and precipitation series. The Xinanjiang (XAJ) hydrological model is driven to project changes in future seasonal runoff under SSP245 and SSP585 scenarios for two future periods: 2050s (2031–2060) and 2080s (2071–2100) based on model calibration and validation. Finally, the peaks over threshold (POT) method and generalized Pareto (GP) distribution are combined to evaluate the changes of flood frequency for the upper Huai River basin. The results show that 1) GCMs project that there has been an insignificant increasing trend in future precipitation series, while an obvious increasing trend is detected in future temperature series; 2) average monthly runoffs in low-flow season have seen decreasing trends under SSP245 and SSP585 scenarios during the 2050s, while there has been an obvious increasing trend of average monthly runoff in high-flow season during the 2080s; 3) there is a decreasing trend in design floods below the 50-year return period under two future scenarios during the 2050s, while there has been an significant increasing trend in design flood during the 2080s in most cases and the amplitude of increase becomes larger for a larger return period. The study suggests that future flood will probably occur more frequently and an urgent need to develop appropriate adaptation measures to increase social resilience to warming climate over the upper Huai River basin.

Abstract. The probabilistic fault displacement hazard analysis is one of the new methods in estimating the amount of possible displacement in the area at the hazard of causal fault rupture. In this study, using the probabilistic approach and earthquake method introduced by Youngs et al., 2003, the surface displacement of the North Tabriz fault has been investigated, and the possible displacement in different scenarios has been estimated. By considering the strike-slip mechanism of the North Tabriz fault and using the earthquake method, the probability of displacement due to surface ruptures caused by 1721 and 1780 North Tabriz fault earthquakes has been explored. These events were associated with 50 and 60 km of surface rupture, respectively. The 50–60 km long section of the North Tabriz fault was selected as the source of possible surface rupture. We considered two scenarios according to possible displacements, return periods, and magnitudes which are reported in paleoseismic studies of the North Tabriz fault. As the first scenario, possible displacement, return period, and magnitude was selected between zero to 4.5; 645 years and Mw~7.7, respectively. In the second scenario, possible displacement, return period and magnitude were selected between zero to 7.1, 300 years, and Mw~7.3, respectively. For both mentioned scenarios, the probabilistic displacements for the rate of exceedance 5 % in 50, 475, and 2475 years for the principle possible displacements (on fault) of the North Tabriz fault have been estimated. For the first and second scenarios, the maximum probabilistic displacement of the North Tabriz fault at a rate of 5 % in 50 years is estimated to be 186 and 230 cm. Also, mentioned displacements for 5 % exceedance in 475 years and 2475 years in both return periods of 645 and 300 years, are estimated at 469 and 655 cm.

In recent years, climate change has been widely discussed around the world. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) in 2021, which stated that with the intensification of global warming, heavy rainfalls are becoming more severe and frequent. Economic development in recent years has also caused the proportion of impervious areas in urban regions to increase with the advancement of urbanization. When the two aforementioned factors are coupled together, the result is faster surface runoff speeds and reduced infiltration rates, which in turn result in worse flooding. Thus, water disaster mitigation is becoming a topic of great importance to developed and developing countries. This study examined five Nature-based Solutions (NbS) cases (A, B C, D, E) for the Nangang river in Taiwan. Case A is to design levees with a 100-year return period flood design standard. Under steady flow conditions, floods can be smoothly discharged downstream without any significant inundation in most situations. Case B and C used gabions with a 10-year return period flood design standard and discontinuous levees with a 25-year return period flood design standard, respectively. Though neither case is as effective in flood mitigation, both cases B and C can still reduce inundation from the flooding disaster relatively well. Case D is to dredge local areas of the main channel, but the steady flow simulation showed little flood mitigation effect. Case E is the implementation of “Room for the River”, and employs main channel dredging and floodplain land grading to increase flood conveyance capacity. Case E provides good flood mitigation.

Abstract A compound perspective on hydrological extreme events is of paramount significance as it may lead to damages with larger losses. In this study, an integrated framework, based on downscaled climate variables and hydrological model, i.e. the Soil and Water Assessment Tool, was applied to generate extreme precipitation (Rx1day) and extreme streamflow (Sx1day) series under historical and future climate conditions. Then the potential impacts of climate change for univariate and bivariate joint frequency of extreme precipitation and flood in Xitiaoxi River Basin (XRB), a representative watershed of the Yangtze River Delta, is detected. The compound risk of extreme precipitation and flood under different levels of joint return period for historical and projected periods are estimated by copula‐based two-dimensional approaches. Major findings can be summarized: (1) The Rx1day and Sx1day under future scenarios increased by -0.4 ~ 11.7% and 0.7 ~ 20.4%, respectively, compared to historical period based on univariate frequency analysis, indicating the increasing magnitude of the flood in the future. (2) Climate change with different emission scenarios all have a driving effect on the rising coactivity of extreme precipitation and flood under compound flooding frequency analysis. In addition, the enhancement of climate change to extreme events is more apparent for extremes with higher return period and under the periods of 2080s. (3) Moreover, the flood frequency designs are deduced by bivariate joint distribution are safer than that by univariate distribution. This study may provide actionable insights to formulate the planning scheme of flood control and disaster reduction under the changing environment.

Abstract Situ Ciledug is an artificial reservoir located at Tangerang Selatan, Indonesia. In 1950 known as one of the largest lakes with total area of 32.806 hectares. As time goes by, due to the construction of housing and land use around the area, the catcahment area was reduced about 19.3 hectares in 2013 and by the end of 2020 the surface area was become 16.2 hectares. Urbanization is the main factor that makes the area of Situ Ciledug’s narrower. The second impact was flooding, as a result, the flood inundates the cities around the reservoir. This study aims to increase the storage capacities by normalizing the reservoir using SWMM 5.1 software. Hydrological analysis was carried out in the first stage to find the maximum rainfall using a 100-year return period. Then result intensity of rainfall used to analyze the hyetograph as input for rainfall data in SWMM 5.1. The modeling uses a maximum of rainfall about 107 mm with a reservoir depth of 1.3 meters. The large inflow that enters the reservoir is 87.504 m3/second aand the volume is 30.145 m3/second. Therefore, it is necessary to normalize the reservoir by increasing the depth of the reservoir by 0.7 meters. Normalization is carried out to accommodate flood discharge as a solution to flood mitigation due to the overflow.
